[BBTC Ride_calendar] SUPERSERIES UPDATE
by Don and Mary Margaret WILLIAMS 06 May '07

06 May '07

Congratulations to the 10 or so die-hard riders who finished yesterday's Springville to Nephi 100 mile SuperSeries event and to all those who rode the shorter mileage legs in some very uncertain weather conditions. The snow around Nephi added a little something to the hurricane force winds on the return leg. Kudos to Tim Shea for adding a new road past the Nephi international airport and marking every turn Coming Mothers Day morning is the first Sunday SuperSeries event of the season with 2 previous Saturday events now in the books. 8:30 AM at Draper Park, this one will be an urban route. The inside the valley short loop is about 75 miles, and a leg north of the Airport will add enough miles to make it 100. An out n back option of about 50 miles is table flat and goes to the International Center and back. So make plans for Mom's dinner to be mid afternoon and get in a great ride early. Don W.

[BBTC Ride_calendar] Friday Ride May 4
by Donna Fisher 03 May '07

03 May '07

For the next few days the weather is not conducive to safe and pleasant biking; also there is road construction just above the Hoagle Zoo starting at Skycrest. Therefore, I have canceled This Friday's ride. Let's hope for better weather next Friday. While I've got your attention I'm going to need help leading rides in June. At this point it looks like I can only definitely commit on the 15th of June. Let me know if anyone on the list can lead any of the remaining Fridays. The deadline for posting a ride is the 10th of May. Donna
