What Organized Ride Will You Be Riding In This Weekend?

[indigoiis]

I am doing the Tour de Cure (round these parts it's the "Tooah de cuah") Narragansett - 100 miles (I know I know, how does one do a hundred miles and still stay within the state of Rhode Island?) for Diabetes on Sunday.

Weather forcast started out looking bleak but by today they are saying it will be good.

Chuckle. That is funny. Have an excellent ride.

anyone considering the "Udder Century" in Union, IL?

The udder century looks like a great ride! I would do it if I lived closer! I was checking out the pictures from previous years. The dinner spread looks fabulous! It looks like they really treat the riders to a great dinner! You should do it pll! And then tell us all about it!

I probably will (62 or 75 mile route). It is about an hour away.

My sister and I are doing the Loreen Miller Ride on Sunday. This ride benefits the local cancer care center and is named after a cyclist who died of cancer. We're hoping to ride somewhere between 50 and 100 miles. It's a good route, I ride sections of it regularly. June is the any weather goes month for NE Washington. Two years ago the ride was almost rained out, last year it was during the first really HOT weather for the area. It will be interesting to see if the forecasted thunderstorms pop up for the afternoon tomorrow. bikerHen

I worked at ALC registration at bike parking.

This amazing beautiful triple appeared. I got to talk briefly to the riders, they said .... they got the bike a week ago nobody has tandem experience including the captain

You'd be proud of me, I gave them a big TE smile, wished them a great and safe ride ... hope they survive and are still talking to each other in a week.

I wish them the best of luck. At least they have one beautiful bike for the journey.

I rode the Gears & Cheers Ride yesterday. It was my first experience of riding in the summer heat this year. The ride was a benefit for the National MS Society and the start and finish location was at a winery. We got to enjoy a box lunch, a glass of wine and live music at the finish.

Yep. Sometimes the excitement of the ride, camraderie (sp?) on the road, communing with other cyclists, plus the beautiful California scenery and doing it all for an important cause and we can accomplish amazing stuff.

Cross posted from the ALC thread here, here's more bike porn. This rider has a unique way of saying "get yer hands off my puhrty bike"

Whoaaaa - I can't imagine that sweet triple on ALC with a rookie captain and stokers...they didn't even get to train on it really either...sheesh...will have to pray for that one to safely arrive at the finish!

As for that gorgeous Orbea, methinks that's the way to go with my next "puhrty" Seven...think I should add "and that means you too, cars! Don't touch or hit my bike!"

Btw, I rode my spin bike this weekend...have to sit upright though...as my head won't allow me to do any bending over w/o the wooziness...but at least I got on it, eh?!
