Thanks to Karen and Klayton for organizing, and for everyone who came out last night. We had a good time at my final Monday Social Ride and the picnic afterwards.

Goofy #2 for the Social Ride.
On the road. We gained a few people and lost a few people.
At the party, a big group of cyclists.

At least I started working on this on Thursday … I dug some old photos off my computer.
Jean Marie, Lenae and Gina take over the Wheel Pit at the Power Pedal with Pink Hats labeled PMS Pit Crew.
Back when BVC Jerseys were new, Jonathan’s first photo with his on his daughter Caroline’s bike.
Jean Marie and Layne at the HH100 Ride finish. 100+ miles DONE!
Daniela is now a professional photographer. Back at this Waco Women’s Mountain Biking Seminar she was just getting started. I always think Daniela’s smile is beautiful.

And old social ride photo! Marv and Sarah pictured at left, I’m not sure who else is in this photo.
A weekend ride photo. I recognize Jonathan, Gary and Jerry.

BVC goes to the Food Drive. Timo, Bill, Cathy, George, Willie, and Ken.
A particularly cold and bitter food drive. But we were there! John, Carolyn, Jennifer, JM, George, Willie and Marv.
Anyone else remember when Nicole had her hybrid? Before she started racing?
The good old days, when we could ride through Disaster City.
I loved telling new cyclists we’d show them a train-wreck on the bike ride … and delivering one!
James’s will remember the nail in his tire.
Philip being silly.
More photos coming soon!
It’s Wednesday, and so it’s time for another installment of the Wednesday Ride. There’s still a chance of more thunderstorms this evening, so use your best judgment when deciding whether or not to ride. I’ll plan on being present at the start no matter what. Otherwise, it’s the usual details for today.
We meet at 5:30 by the Flagpole, roll out at ~5:45, and if you’re running late let me know (before 5:20, e-mail rebeccmeister@gmail.com, otherwise my cell number is 480 734 fifty-five, thirty-five).
We’re still an intermediate-paced ride, structured as a series of sprints, averaging around 16 mph for 32 miles total (that will take 2 hours and change). We regroup at the end of each section to make sure no one gets lost or left behind, and there’s a stop at a gas station partway in to refuel (ha!). If you’re feeling frisky and reach regroup points fast, you can always add bonus miles by U-turning and doing additional laps. Why not?
