Rain, Rain, Go Away. Black Widowette Ride Cancelled for Tonight.

This could be a record with 3 weeks without a Drafter ride.  We can only wag a finger at Mother Nature for 2 of those, with Labor Day making this a long stretch.  Or, we can wag a finger at Sandlot for not doing the right dance on the sun dial.

We will regroup next week for the Black Widowetter Ride, and hopefully 2 rides after that.  County Hwy P is being repaved near Martinsville, so we will have to skip the Cocktail Ride and finish with Easy Street and Riley Tavern.

Put Sept 30 on your calendar for the END OF SEASON party.  Details still in the works, but hopefully this will occur after the last ride at Longtable.

Not everyone was as eager to ride tonight as C-Monster and BrickO, who wanted to show off her new bike from Cronometro.

All Draftered up and nowhere to go.
The Green Machine will have to wait to make her Drafter debut.

Sandlot, Duchess, Knievel and Hundo (and maybe others) are happy to rest their legs after the Door County Century.

Sandlot at DCC. Duchess was not in green and therefore not pictured.

Several Drafters got down and Dirty.

Footer and BrickO get dirty.
Cannibal goes to Whistler to get dirty.

Remember the Dirty Draft at CamRock next Wed, Sept 18 at 5:30.  Enter CamRock on the east end (from downtown Cambridge).  Bring a bike light and a head lamp for your helmet if you have one.  You will need to buy a trail pass for $5, or annual $16.  A CORP membership is highly encouraged. Beer is also a good idea should you want to hang out afterwards at Footer’s cottage in Cambridge.

If you don’t want to get dirty, get flexible at yoga with Pipes this Wednesday, Sept 11 at Quarry Arts at 2:30.  Cost is $10.  Please RSVP to Pipes.  Following yoga, you can rehydrate at Capital Brewery for CORP movie night.

If it is more road biking you seek, think about The Ride Sept 22 or Tyranena Sept 28.  And if gravel is your thing, the 63 mile Railroad Robioux out of Fond du Lac on Oct 12. Link: Railway Robioux

Draft responsibly,

BrickO

  1. Hey Bricko!

    Is the black widow the route for tomorrow, or would you be able to point me to the link with the route? I’ll download it this time so I don’t get lost.

    There’s a small chance work will prevent me from attending tomorrow. If not, I’ll see you at the bank!

    🙂
