Re: [bfclubboulder] Bike Friday's Lynette Chiang is planning to visit us!... and some othre club stuff.
Sorry I missed it Jeff,
Was on call for the week (Friday to Friday) so pretty much stranded to being close, and close to a vehicle. Def let me know of other rides.
Have contacted Lynette about place to stay,,,but I live clear out in Aurora,,,not exactly close to Boulder/foothills, any of the places associated with stereotype Colorado for her.

Boulder Folders,
We had a great little ride last Sunday. Despite the forecast, the weather was great.... I forgot my camera though!
I am going to work on making sure we have a club ride/gathering at least every month and a half. Please feel free to email the group and make suggestions for routes and destinations for our rides.
Eventually, I'd like to get us to the point where we have three levels of rides: easy, medium, and hard. An easy ride would be a light spin about Boulder's bike paths, and this would be the type of ride we would do the most frequently. A medium ride would be something like a ride out to Lyons and back. A hard ride would be something as challenging as the climb to Ward or Jamestown. Of course, we would advertise the type of ride via email so everyone knows what to expect. Please feel free to let me know if you have any thoughts on this.
And now on to some BIGGER news.... Bike Friday's famous
Lynette Chiang is coming out to Boulder for a visit in March! She is still hammering out the details, but she needs a little help on her visit now. Lynette needs suggestions for:
1) Local bike shops that you think might make a good match to become an official Bike Friday dealer. This would be a great thing for us Boulder Folders as it would mean that there would be a local store that not only carried some stock models but knew a lot more about Fridays than the average bike shop.
2) Any local venues that might be able to host a film/talk/demo from Lynette. This venue could be the same bike shop you suggest above, or something completely different. The only thing Lynette would need is a PowerPoint projector and a screen. As an example, I have suggested the meeting room at the renovated REI. But we are looking for any other ideas you may have.
Thanks, and please feel free to email back with any of your ideas.
