TNR April 28th Feelin' Pinky

Like Swallows and Capistrano, the shaved legs have returned and like a Robin in a snowstorm the cold weather has everyone feeling a little pink in the skin.
The weather tonight was bright sun and NNE wind with 40’s on tap. 11 tough guys rolled out together to share the road and the load. One of these days the weather will warm but for now you run what you brung. We add distance next week. Be ready to ride at 5:30pm.

Tuesday Night Ride, rain and more




Snow on April 20th 2009


I have been re-miss recently on updates. Spring is always busy here and despite the rotten weather we have been on the go. The Dick Lytie Spring Classic was a success with nice (for that race) cool weather and sun. See the previous post for info on that. Our Tuesday Night Ride (TNR) started two weeks ago and true to form we have been blessed with cold windy weather but at least it was sunny. Monday Night runs have been going well and we have had several women grace our group which is nice to see. Our first mechanics class of the year was very popular and will be repeated as well as a Women's Only Clinic later this summer. Check out our website for info on that. Our next big event is the Cellcom Marathon Expo which is turning into a huge event. Summer is scheduled to return this week and I cannot wait. Check out www.newvelo.org as a bike forum for our area. Our own Chris Mau put this together as a sounding board for cyclist in north east Wisconsin....and the world.
I expect things to settle down and I will catch up in the meantime get out and enjoy the spring.
