Aloha BF Club of HI members,

You probably already got this in which case ignore. Just posting it for
posterity on the Club
message board ...

Mahalo,

Just a note to confirm my Dec 1 and 3 movie showings on Oahu next
week - the final email with details is below, and it's also on
http://www.bikefriday.com/events

This will be the last bleating from me for another year, please
shout if you want to be liberated from this list. It was just a bit
hard to go through plucking out folks who did not live on Oahu!

- I hope you can make it to one of the shows. It would be great to see you.
I have a couple of guest passes to the HBL dinner on Friday Dec 1
if any of you would like to join me. The catch is you will be strongly
encouraged to join the Hawaii Bicycling League. Let me know.

- We'll probably do a Social Ride on Dec 2 and/or 3 (before the Kaneohe
show) - contact me if interested - some of you already have.
Maybe we'll just do the Hawaii Kai route unless
there is a more innovative suggestion. I just did the Saddle Road on the
Big Island with folks here - going up at 6mph for 4 hours got a bit old, but
coming down was a screamer - actually funner than Haleakala, in that you did not
need to use your brakes, but could freewheel at a constant 32 mph.

- BF Club of HI leader Ralph Dobson is appearing in the Nutcracker on
Dec 1,2 and 3. I'd like to try and make it to the matinee or evening show on Dec
2 and
experience the new theater - would someone like to join me? I think Ralph can
offer a
'friends and favorite foe' ticket at a $4 discount. Let me know 541-513-7711.

Please share this with whoever might be interested, and thank you for your time
(
a non-renewable resource).

Mahalo

ABOUT THIS MOVIE:

ROUTE 66 BY BICYCLE: PEDALING THE MOTHER ROAD
Duration 45 minutes
In April this year, Race Across America legend
Lon Haldeman led 40 cyclists 2,488 miles
from LA to Chicago to celebrate the 80th Anniversary
of Route66. This movie is an upbeat two-wheeled journey
along the paved and potholed 'forgotten road', eating at
classic '66 cafes, meeting famous olde road characters
and visiting beloved icons of roadside America.
