Hey all,

I'm going to be in rome for a few days and was hoping to rent a bike and do some nice rides out there. Does anyone have a recommendation on where I can rent a bike as well as some suggested rides?

Thanks,

Israel

Hi,

I am pretty sure that I purchased two tickets for the Gala but have not received hard tickets. I had just assumed that my name would be on a list at the door, but I get the sense from some other posts that hard tickets are circulating. How can I confirm that (i) I actually bought tickets and (ii) how to get hold of them?

Thanks!

As Time describes Yohann's participation in this year's Tour de France, "his presence is remarkable."  Here's to the miscegenation of cycling!!

Hi all.

I am looking to organize a bike trip through southeast Asia this fall - now end of November.  The larger tour companies, such as Velo Asia, will plan custom tours for small groups allowing you to tailor difficulty level as well as arrival/departure dates.  This gives a group much more flexibility than just joining one of their standard trips.

I would love to buy a gala ticket if anyone has one available...  [email protected]

Thanks!

See you soon, riders.

If anyone attending the club meeting this week would like a sampling of Odwalla bars, shoot me an email with the link on the left. I'm part of Active Ambassadors, a brand sponsorship program for amateur athletes, and am sponsored this year by Odwalla. I'll bring you a sample pack to the meeting. I do need a photo or two with your smiling faces and some Odwalla bars as proof that I shared the bars and didn't eat all of them myself. If you have any feedback on the bars, Odwalla would love hear your thoughts.

Below are the current flavors I have. If you find a favorite flavor, I will get another shipment later this year of bars and drink coupons.

For those who "enjoyed" the scenery and extra workout this morning on the George Washington Bridge, here's why....it was for a good cause.  Chris Blethen's original goal was to aise $3,000 or 1 dollar for every mile which he's since increased to $5/mile - to help kids battling cancer.  He rode his horse (one of four) from 'The Big D' (Dallas) to the 'Big Apple.'
