Doing work.

                  Spectacular ride today. 19 folks showed up.  A BH record for January!  We rode the standard Bicycle Heaven route until we hit the northeastern most corner.  At that point we broke down into small groups based on either ability or desired workout.  Each group then headed [...]

Saturday Group Ride

January 7, 2012.   Assemble at the Caribou Coffee in Geneva around 9:45 (meaning a departure of probably 10:00).  We’ll roll out for about 3 hours of riding.  Mostly medium paced.  It’s going to be a great day to ride! Bring a road bike.

The fun… it never stops.

Great times at the BH party last night. Special thanks to Rob and Ara for the drinks and excellent setting. Extra-special thanks to Dr. Fee for not only sponsoring the team, but bringing a basket full of tooth brushes! Computrainer reminder: If you’ve ever wanted to see what riding one of these beasts is like, [...]

It only hurts for the first 90 minutes.
