Christmas Spirit?

Hello all!

I was wondering if anyone would like to help me with a little project. I am thinking of putting together "Santa and his reindeer" (the cyclists version) for a ride and a photo op for a Christmas card. I am thinking reindeer antlers on our helmets, riding 2 by 2 with Rudolph up front, Santa in back. We would need a blinky red nose (wondering if my backlight might somehow hold to someone's nose). Jingle bells. Anyone have a tow along we could make into Santa's sleigh? I would love the photo op and anyone who wants can partake of the photo to share with others for your own Christmas card or something if you would like. Then we can ride around Back Cove, or longer depending how this whole thing turns out.

I know it sounds corny, but don't you think it would bring out a lot of smiles? :) We can do it some weekend in December, weather permitting. Please let me know if you would be interested. I am tired of writing my Christmas cards with "Nothing new. Work, bike, eat, sleep. Repeat."

Range Road Reconstruction

Did anyone read about the Range Road Reconstruction in the Forecaster?

http://www.theforecaster.net/story.php?storyid=17034

If it goes ahead then we'll be looking at construction on that road all summer next year. The route might need to detour over Mountain Road for another season.

What is 'Cross?

Yesterday Stephanie Chase forwarded a comical video from her teammates, C-Todd, Seth, Kim and Tom, to enlighten everyone on what goes on in a racer's mind during these events. Thanks Steph for forwarding it!

Enjoy!!

Sunday Ride, 11/09

We had a terrific ride Sunday (11/02). There were 11 of us that rode off to Yarmouth, with a stop at the Royal Bean for some coffee, then most of us kept on going to Freeport and back.

Along the way back, Deke suggested a Sunday ride to Buck's Naked BBQ in Freeport for lunch.

Personally, I thought it was a GREAT idea! I hope you do too.

Let's plan on meeting at the shop at 10am Sunday, November 9th (weather permitting) and we'll make our way to Freeport. Bucks Naked opens at 11am so that will be perfect timing!

If you need more enticing, check out the MENU. Yummmmmmm!!
