Events

If you have an event, as opposed to a regular ride, it will be posted here. Events are usually sanctioned by some organized body (business, club or organization). They will usually have a registration fee and be supported with food/water stations and sometimes SAG support. Please see individual posts for contact information.

What an opening day!

The Tour de France will certainly be interesting this year if for no other reason than trying to figure out who is the team leader of Astana. Of course Fabian Cancellara won the opening individual time trial. Aside from his incredible and brave downhill run to the finish, there was a lot more to tell.

I can’t believe it is July 1st already. I think much of this denial is the result of not having the opportunity to be on the road riding either my single bike or tandem with Nicole. Well in another eight weeks things will be different. Just a few notes.

No I won’t be riding, but I will be on the Morrow Mountain State Park roadway to take some pictures of the fortunate few that brave this ride. For more details make sure you go to Jeff Viscount’s Weekly Rides website.

I will not be SAGing this ride but will be near the top of Morrow Mountain yelling out moral support and if I remember, I’ll ask Jeff to borrow his cowbell! All the images will be posted a few days after the ride in an album off the main Galleries page.
