[BBTC Ride_calendar] (no subject)

31 Mar '07

Hello BBTC, One week from today is the first of the So You Want To Ride A Century rides. Are you getting psyched up to ride your first century? It's time to make it happen! Now for some added incentive for you folks from Davis County and points north to come down for the series. The Standard-Examiner is interested in profiling up to 3 cyclists who are preparing to ride their first century. They'd like some riders from their readership area and plan an article (with follow up I believe) on riding your first century. A little reality newspaper action. This would be a good way to commit to the series and century. Put it in black and white! If you fit this criteria and can handle a little spotlight on your goal, let Lyle Phelps treasurer(a)bbtc.net<mailto:treasurer@bbtc.net> or me know. If possible let us know before next weeks ride. Thanks, Eric Unck Road Captain '07 roadcaptain(a)bbtc.net<mailto:roadcaptain@bbtc.net>

[BBTC Ride_calendar] Fwd: Cue for SLC to Idaho Falls, suggestions, etc.

BBTC'rs, Can anyone help this guy? McCool "Bright, Walter (DSCP)" <Walter.Bright(a)dla.mil> wrote: Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2007 17:52:42 -0400 From: "Bright, Walter $DSCP$" <Walter.Bright(a)dla.mil> To: <cycling(a)bbtc.net> Subject: Cue for SLC to Idaho Falls, suggestions, etc. Greetings, I am from Southern New Jersey and will be flying into SLC in late April and am planning on riding my bike direct to Idaho Falls. While I am familiar with cycling in general from SLC, mainly because I have gone to Jackson, Wyo a number of times and was wondering if you had a cue for any part of the route or any suggestions to Idaho Falls? I am looking at general maps right now and I don't see anything jumping out at me that is direct and looks like a sure thing. I am thinking because I am familiar with the route to Jackson, the most attractive alternative right now seems to go up to Logan and catch 89 thru Logan canyon and loop on back on US 26. Otherwise US 91 and D1 in Idaho hugging the I-15 corridor looks like itÂs the only other possibility. The problem with the former, it looks to be 300 miles almost exactly. 50 or so miles more than thru Pocatello. I will be under time constraints and if possible, a shorter, more direct route is what I am after. Any help, suggestions, would be welcome. As I said, any suggestions or route intelligence would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Walter Bright Delanco, NJ --------------------------------- We won't tell.

This is one of only two All Women's Metric Centuries in the country and it just gets better every year! The ride is a fully supported, non-competitive, Women Only Cycling event. Spend the day riding through beautiful Cache Valley in Northern Utah. The route is a loop through the Valley on rural & country (paved) roads. The terrain is mostly flat, with some rolling hills (NO big climbs). There are several route options, if you don't feel like riding 100 miles yet! We already have several ladies registered (Ogden One and Hill Cycling Club), but the more the merrier so let's get a big group going. After you've registered, please notify <mailto:Diane.Evans@hill.af.mil> Diane Evans or <mailto:Pamela.Vineyard@HILL.af.mil> Pam Vineyard -- we'll get coordination underway so we can all start the ride together!

They have asked us to see if HAFB Cycling has interested cyclists to help with registration, marshalling, motivating riders to move faster or pull them (not on a bike, yank 'em out of the race!) if they're slower, as well as finish line activities. I think we have a great resource of riders on base and there might be some who'd love to be involved in the SL Marathon.

[BBTC Ride_calendar] mtn bike ride today?
by Rob Y. 23 Mar '07

23 Mar '07

Hey BBTC, I am thinking of heading out on the BST this afternoon for a ride, anyone interested? I was figuring on riding somewhere between 2 and 3 pm for an hour or two. My thoughts are to do an out and back from the mouth of Emigration up behind the U and possibly the Avenues if Dry Gulch is not muddy after the recent weather. Anyone interested give me a call at 288-1330. Rob Y.

[BBTC Ride_calendar] Lotoja rooms cont.
by Brent W. 22 Mar '07

22 Mar '07

Hello Lotoja riders, I wanted to update all of you on the rooms for Jackson Hole. I have a deal worked out with Super 8 in Jackson for $89/night. The price for a 1 bed and 2 bed room in Jackson was the same and so I booked all 2 bed rooms. If you don't need the extra bed you get it anyways. By booking all the rooms together we are saving $30/night. Anyways, I hope this will help relieve some of the stress most of us encountered last year with finding rooms. Everyone who has responded for a room up until now, I have you down for the rooms you requested. The rooms are going quick. I thought 15 rooms would almost do it, but there are only 4 left now. I can block more if needed, but most of the Logan hotels/motels are already filled and the prices in Jackson/Teton Village are already pricey. Please respond soon if you plan on riding Lotoja this year. Have a good one, Brent Williams brent(a)benefitinspections.com
