cranksgiving this saturday 11.12.09
From http://cranksgiving-omaha.blogspot.com/
Time: The race starts at noon, but you need to be there around 11:15 to check in, sign the waiver (in which you promise not to get killed -- or at least not blame us for it) and get your bike ready. The shopping list will be distributed at 11:50, and the Le Mans start is at noon. You'll like the Le Mans start. It's fun. Really.
Lots of good info at the link above.
All the food and items collected go to the local Food Bank. Cranksgiving is a reason to ride; for many, a chance to ride in small groups; and collect food for those in need.

Bike Masters road racing
For those of you who may be interested in road racing, Bike Masters will be sponsoring a shop club team for 2010 and beyond. We will continue to sponsor our mountain bike racing club. These teams will race under the banner of Bike Masters Cycling Club and wear the signature green jersey. Brandon F. has agreed to be the captain of the road team. Dale R. will continue as head of the mountain team.
Please contact Dan or Dave at the shop if you are interested in racing under the Bike Masters flag.
These teams will emphasize having a good time, riding with your friends and making new friends, promoting cycling in the community, and good sportsmanship. We will be working out the details of the team sponsorship benefits very soon.
Thanks,
Dave
Manager

trailwork this weekend at calvin crest
http://thor-trails.blogspot.com/2009/11/trailwork-at-calvin-crest-sat-and-sun.html
An opportunity to serve and improve the local mtb scene. Fortunately, our mtb trails are built and maintained with volunteers. Those who use the trail and take ownership in its construction and appearance consider it a labor of love. Please consider spreading a little love this weekend at Calvin Crest.

All are welcome.
Ride a Kinetic fluid or Giant magnetic trainer before you buy.

monday night lights
Ryan helped light up Katie's(?) group pic.
Nice ride last night, cool temps, no wind, full moon, conversation. First lap clockwise required more pedaling. Riding up southhill descent berms, cut, and camelbacks were challenging. Add in the night perspective and it was not the familiar, nonthinking, comfortable counterclockwise ride. Then rode the north half counterclockwise to bring back the familiar trail and maximize the coasting. A couple of us stopped for refreshments at Paul's.
On the way home down Fort St about 20:30, I had a small suv pull up along side and yell "on your left --- get a car". I didn't have time for a response but as I kept pedaling I thought, it's sad he doesn't understand how fun (liberating, invigorating, dare I say spiritual) riding a bike is. Some people think you have to use a car or you're missing something. Of course they're the ones missing something by not riding a bike. 8-)
