Insomnia. The publisher couldn’t sleep last night, and released the blog in an unprecedented Monday night release. Cobwebs were thick, so despite honorable intentions, some honorable deeds were not mentioned.

V2.0

….. and the Short Pour lit up the north bound lane.

The group enjoyed more than just a fire. Hawkeye brought his whole flock, including 2 Junior Drafters, and snacks! Much thanks.

WEEKEND HIGHLIGHTS:

Shaq could make a quilt with all the t-shirts from the century rides she has done just this year alone. She rode the Peninsula Century on Saturday and is gearing up for Ride the Ridges next weekend. Spoiler alert: she isn’t done.

Spigot was included in the Chequamegon 40 shout outs, but it should be noted this was his inaugural Drag Race from Hayward to Cable… and he did it on a 40 pound (rounding) fat bike. Granted, he swapped the tires, but those fat tires ARE the shock absorption! The fact that he had enough power to capture this photo of a Badger fan playing the bag pipes while climbing a monster hill is a testament to hit grit. And appreciation for talent.

Drafter Finale. Confused? In past years, the Drafter Finale is not always the final draft. The Finale takes place on a weekend (Sun Sept 28) so that we can 1) ride/ climb longer than on a Monday evening and 2) enjoy socializing after the ride. No plans for awards this year, aside from the Tour de Dane. Just bring whatever food and beverage you would like to enjoy and a lawn chair. The venue is our barndominium in Ridgeway. Twinkle Toes has verified its structural integrity. Bring hiking shoes and enjoy exploring the cave and springs.
