THREE Days of Mindless Drivel from RICH. . .

A heartfelt apology . . .

Yesterday I was just too lazy to post anything

I know that many of you have come to view this as your only source of truly unbiased news . . .

AN IMPORTANT QUESTION:

MAN OR BEE . . . 

YOU BEE THE JUDGE

Nice to have Hillary join us, her longest ride ever!  
WAY TO GO HILLARY!!

It's a good thing thing the good doctor was in to
analyze the situation

As always, the MOCHA MOOSE was a source of entertainment . . . I think we need to lobby for more chairs 

 Two guys sharing a bench will never work.

Jeff, perplexed by the situation vows to spend the rest of the day eating Fritos, if he can find a way to carry them.  

Earlier we noticed a funny device on his bike, 

looking suspiciously like a metronome . . .

Was actually a clever device designed

to hold a bag of Fritos

The weather turned hot and windy which led to brain confusion. It seemed to affect some of us more than others as . . .

NO NO SHEREE

THE OTHER WAY!

TIME TO RIDE 

Just Past

We had a real break; It turned into a $100 ridefor Wayne . . . 
"the Trouble with Tubulars!"

One misguided rider chose to ride past without even saying "hi"

(Tyler . . . oops . . . didn't mean to reveal your identity)

When he realized 1) the error of his ways, and 2) 

a pox would be on his tires

He quickly had a change of heart and joined us.

After "route realization," Sheree finished strong

Ready to ride another day

A SPECIAL DULUTH ROAD CYCLISTS 

AWARD GOES TO:

JEFF:  WHO JUST LAST WEEK WON HIS DIVISION AT THE

ST PAUL INLINE MARATHON

(this award comes with absolutely nothing but our undying respect)

THANKS TO ALL THOSE THAT RODE ON SATURDAY

IT WAS GREAT!!

SUNDAY'S THEME

suffice it to say . . . it was a tad windy

Seven brave (read: idiot) souls turned out at 7:00 to brave the wind

(Russ, Wayne, Jeff,James, Dave,Mark and your author)

To be honest . . . We spent time

Drinking coffee
















and laughing at the
absurdity of the situation

Dave chose a GREAT route

We stayed bunched as tight

as possible to stay out of the wind

Our bikes stayed lined
up even when we weren't ridin' 'em
(not sure why that red one
is goin' the wrong way)

We knew this was the last break 

before it was going to get fast . . .

really fast as we blazed down Hwy 210 from Thomson to Fon DuLac

We rode 4hrs and 30 minutes, to race for 5 miles

We'll just say it ended "in a draw," with all riders giving 100%

IT WAS A BLAST!

After Sunday's Massive Effort,

Monday was subdued;

Just five guys riding their

bicycles

Rich's new bike with fat tires, fenders a cushy seat, 3-speeds and a basket with
flowers . . . perfect for those gravel
road rides!
