Upcoming and Oncoming


Man!  We have just about used June up.

Allow me to be the first to wish you all a very merry Christmas.  (It’s now less than six months away.)  Time to get those lists made, and start shopping!

On a more immediate note:  It’s exactly one week until the 4th of July.  If you haven’t signed up for our local parade, get on it!  (If you are somewhere else, why not see about riding in your parade?)

Novice Mountain Bike Ride:  Yup!  It’s this week.  Tomorrow, in fact.  I won’t be there, but my coworker, Ty, will be.  Have you been putting this one off?  Why?  It’s a lot of fun, and you’ll undoubtedly learn some cool stuff.

Funnest Road Ride in Georgia:  Happens in just two and a half weeks.  That’s 14 July.  We’ll meet and depart from the municipal parking lot, in Helen, GA.  Ride starts at 8:00 A.M.  (I know that’s early, and it’s remote, but there are good reasons for this.)  I’ll post more on this soon, but start planning now.

Also Rapidly approaching:  These are a bit more distant in time, but will be here fast.  Mid-Summer’s Eve Night Ride on August 1, and Triple Gap Route Ride on August 4.

Are you having trouble riding?  Does the “every afternoon thunderstorm” interfere with your recreation and training?  Grab a rain jacket and go!  Get off of the road for the really intense stuff, but go ride in the rain!  It’s actually pleasant, and it’s going to happen sooner or later, so you might as well start doing it by choice.

A good safe week to you all.  It’s Prime Time!  Go out and ride!
