Ladies and Mr. Silver - the OKHT http://www.okht.org/ is just around the corner and I would encourage all who live in or around Kentucky to participate in this great cycling event. You have three routes (50, 72, 100 mile) to pick from on Saturday and a wonderful but hilly 55 mile route home on Sunday. The SAGs (don't miss the famous cookie stop on Sunday) are great and no one should walk away hungry. Lunch on Saturday is alway a delight. Breakfast with Chris Cakes is a real joy (hope you can catch those flying pancakes). You will travel some beautiful rural roads from Louisville to Bardstown and enjoy the company of some very friendly and warm cyclists from this area. I understand most of the hotel rooms are booked at this point but that does not leave you out for you can always camp out on the high school's baseball field or claim a piece of their gym floor.
I've not yet seen the jerseys for this year's event but I understand they are beautiful, one of the best.
Come out and play in beautiful Kentucky, you won't regret it.

Makbike, thanks for the reminder. If I weren't already doing BRAT from September 15-22, I would do the OKHT, since I so thoroughly enjoyed the Horsey Hundred. Maybe next year. In any event, I'll be at the Horsey, God willing, next year. Perhaps we can all meet up then......
Have a great OKHT though.

I'm Planning on doing the HOW100 that weekend, but that is one I have bookmarked for my future.

Come on down!
The 50 mile route is a great route. I'm giving some serious thought to the century. My 15 year old nephew and brother will be riding it and well I can't let a 15 year old out ride me. I haven't made my mind up and may not until the night before. So many options and all of them are great ones.
I hope the Silver family journeys down to participate for it is a great weekend.Marcie

How fast a rider is he? I might be able to entice SilverSon if he thinks there's someone his age to shoot for the century with.
