[BBTC Ride_calendar] May start times
by Eric UNCK 15 Apr '07

15 Apr '07

Hi BBTC ride leaders, The question was bought up that now that it's light a little longer, could we start evening rides at 6:00 to allow those who work until 5:00 time to get to the ride? If this applies to you let me know what you think. Eric Unck Road Captain '07

[BBTC Ride_calendar] May calendar
by Eric UNCK 15 Apr '07

15 Apr '07

Hi BBTC, Heads up, tomorrow is the last day to add rides to the May calendar. For folks that have already put in rides, I think I've made the corrections y'all sent me but take one last look at your submissions and let me know. I can edit at any time, but what you see is what will be in the newsletter (besides punctuation and such). For new ride leaders, if you haven't already done it, please read the Ride Leader Guidelines so we're all on the same page. Thanks for volunteering to lead rides. You are what gets the club on the road! Eric Unck Road Captain '07

Meet at 9:45 a.m. and ride at 10 a.m. Tks. TCoffey

[BBTC Ride_calendar] SL Marathon bike ride
by Raleigh Fehr 13 Apr '07

13 Apr '07

Anybody out ther not doing the Willard Bay Super Series or the So You want to ride a century? The Salt Lake Marathon is in need of some additional ride marshalls for the bike ride. Requirements: Be able to maintain 15 mph for 25 miles. Be able to stop and assist with a flat tire if called upon to do so. Other than that just get out and have a fun time riding 25 miles of closed course through Salt Lake. And for those who are real industrious, you can pony up to ride it a second time. Starting around 11:00 AM they need a small group to fill their pockets with energy bars and ride the course again. This time to encourage the slower runners and offer up a little energy. Let me know if you are interested and I'll fill you in on the remaining few details. Oh, there is a small down side. They need us at the starting line before 5:30 AM for a 6:00 AM ride start.

[BBTC Ride_calendar] BBTC - Mountain bike rides!
by Rob Y. 11 Apr '07

11 Apr '07

Hey BBTC!! I have had some great responses from many of you in favor of more mountain bike rides on the schedule, so now let's get them posted. If everyone that has offered to lead rides could think about getting some posted to the May calendar I will then look to fill in the gaps in the rides offered to make sure we have at least a couple per week to choose from and that we also offer rides for all abilities. This is a perfect time for new riders as well as experienced offroad riders to start riding. The easier rides are always the first to dry up and allow us to start building a base in the dirt. Don't forget, the deadline for the calendar is Sunday the 15th. I know the current weather is making it hard to get off the pavement this week, but overall the early season dirt riding has been fantastic already. The BST has been dry and tacky and most of the downhills are in really good shape already (Bobsled & Dry Gulch). Also, Round Valley in Park City is also dry already and I have heard that Glenwild is as well. The north and east slopes though are still a little too wet to ride yet and with the current weather pattern this week we may have to sit out of the dirt for a while again, at least in PC, but I don't think it will be too long. Of course Moab is also an option! Let's get out and ride! Rob Y.

Hi BBTC, It's me again. Remember, the 15th is coming fast. It's on a Sunday so if you're leaving for the weekend be sure to submit rides for the May calendar before you go. Thanks to all who have submitted rides and those who have stepped up to lead the Super Series and Mini-Me rides. We still have spots open so jump on in. Thanks, Eric Unck Road Captain '07
