Epic Labor Day Ride 2009

We did a combo fall out / iceman run hitting Balt Mt North first, then over to Addison and then down to Stony. We were on track to do the marathon loop at Stony but time was running long. Good fun had by all. In attendance John S, John G, Steve K (not pictured), Paul, and me. We had multiple commutes but millage was north of 40 miles for all with some as high as 46-47.

Hell Yes Sprints - Ann Arbor

This looks pretty WILD. Any BERC riders want to car pool and give it a go? I can not make it the 9th but have put the 23rd in the calendar. It would be a lot more fun if we get a few guys to go. What do you think? If you are receiving this via email you can click here to visit the blog post.

Roller racing has a long history going back to the beginning of cycling. Contemporary racing - "Gold-Sprints" began in Zurich, Switzerland. The name and the event was founded in 1997 by Adrien Weber who is a passionate cyclist and owner of the only brewery in Zurich - Turbinenbr�u. Their event is named after their beer brand "Gold-Sprint".

A Sprint is a bicycle racing and social event. Riders on stationary bikes compete against each other in front of a crowd of cheering friends.

Thanksgiving Day Ride

The sign says it all!

Thanksgiving Day Ride

I am thankful I made it through the ride today. I'm going to sleep well tonight. Honestly it pushed me pretty hard. The SS was challenging with the limited traction. I was in and out of my clips so much I ripped my shoe covers. This was my second snow ride, the first being last night. Talk about a crash course. The entire trail was snow covered and not just a dusting. It was a riot and as a first timer it seemed to be a great turn out. Here is a link to Robert's blog that hosted today. We had a blast, James, Jimmy, Dan, Don, Andy, Pablo, John were all there. Mrs. Gonway and Mrs. Dworack canceled at the last minute due to inability to get there butts out of bed.
