Having problems with message search?
Greetings, all.
Once again I'm late with these notes, but better late than later.
Much of our May meeting concentrated on the club picnic, which was held on Saturday May 13th. So, a lot of my notes are outdated. We had a great turn-out and a good time was had by all. I want to give a special big thanks to:
- The Yearys - who pretty much set up the whole thing, including shopping for food and supplies, reserving the shelter, and setting up the picnic area.
- The Caspers - who donated the delicious burgers.
- Dan (no-name) Murphy - who brought his interesting and tasty home brews.
Other items discussed either at or since the meeting:
- TIME TRIALS
- Begin on May 15th at 6:00 PM at the downtown airport.
- Meet at 6:00 PM in the parking lot north of Executive Beechcraft, near the traffic circle.
- We have since had two trials - see the weekly TT reports for results.
- SATURDAY DAM RIDES
- Time is 8:00 AM through the end of May.
- Time changes to 7:30 AM on the first Saturday of June (June 3rd)
- The fast (18+ mph) and slow (<16 mph) will both start at the same time.
- Meet in the FIRST parking lot just east of the dam on Highway DD. (NOT the Litton Center lot)
- REFRESHMENTS
- Discussed coolers for refreshments
- Several liquid and chest-type coolers are available for $10 to $22
- We have several members willing to donate the use of coolers, so purchasing one was put on hold.
- Chapstick donated a 6-gallon package of GatorAde mix, which is being used at Time Trials.
- Leftovers from the picnic should also be used at rides and TTs.

- Badger sent the updates and revisions to Dover.

- Badger and Dover will continue to monitor the messages and delete the outdated ones.
- EVENTS
- Memorial Day Ride - Monday May 29th
- Come join the Hammer & Nail for an early morning Memorial Day spin from Plattsburg. We'll start out at 7:30 from the corner of Highway 116 & 33 (two miles east of Plattsburg) and go either 37 or 50 scenic miles, depending on the make-up and mood of the group that shows up. Should get you all home in plenty of time for memorial day festivities. Ride will conclude with some beverage carbo loading. Hope to see you there, and pass this along to anyone else you think may be interested.....Also will be doing a little longer ride on Sunday if anyone is interested.
