I would like to issue a warm and fuzzy congratulations to Mr. J-Mac for the work that he has done to get this blog spot up and running. I know that there are some of us that understand more than others how to get something up and running like this, however most probably don't have the time nor can find it. It is great to see that things are coming around for the entire group. I wanted to mention how everyone has gone on the rides and returned safely, but don't want to dwell to much into that for fear of setting a curse on the group. So everyone pat yourself on the shoulder for "some rides well done". Over the course of the next couple weeks, we have been thinking, we would like to get some other routes together. If anyone has any suggestions please let either John or myself know, or if I am correct you may blog this site. I am sure that we will be checking out this "blogger" regularly.
About tonights ride (Thursday the 27th), I am seeing a bit of wind coming from the West. Everyone should be prepared to push through the headstrong wind a little bit, until we get to turn around and have it work in our favor. Hopefully it wont turn on us and be in the front on the way back. I also just want to let everyone know that they are all more than welcome to sit on and get a draft "NASCAR Style, in NASCAR Country". The distance of the ride however long is easily overcome or easier to travel while taking a little break in a draft now and again. But those who want the full Meal Deal the whole time can simply tough it out in the head wind.
I also want to take a moment for those of you that are or will be, in the near future or later future, purchasing a new bicycle or thinking of the same, and mention "Cannondale". You may visit their web @ www.cannondale.com, and take a peak at all there lines. I can honestly say that "in my opinion" this is the best bicycle that I have ever riden. I have been on them my whole life and nothing responds like it. The line of clothing that they have, it is priceless. Everything wears like a glove, feels incredibly comfortable, and is readily available at Frankford bicycle, in Girard OH. You can also view some of their items that they have available on their website - www.frankfordbike.com
John has put a few links on the side of the blogger, but I wanted to also mention some that you may not know of if you are looking to make cycling oriented purchases:
www.jensonusa.com, www.nashbar.com, www.pricepoint.com, www.wheelworld.com, www.cambriabike.com, www.speedgoat.com, www.performance.com, www.coloradocyclist.com
those I am sure, as some could assume, are just a couple of many. If you are shopping my suggestion is to shop as many of the sites as you can tolerate as you may find that there are some really smokin deals out there. For mechanical tips you can go to www.bicycling.com and they have a section on that kinda stuff there. But don't be to shy to ask me and I will help any way that I can.
Tentatively (if I can drag my butt out of the sack) we are going to ride from Johns Sat. am. I am trying to convince him that we ride to New Wilmington and stop for some of that really good coffee. I hope to see a couple of you "2wf's" out there for the Saturday LSD ride.
Take care and if you need any questions answered or you would like any suggestions you may blog the site, and or email john or myself.
