I hope to meet many of you on Sunday morning - I'm the new Director of Development & Communications at Trailnet and a member of St. Louis' LGBT community. I've been hoping to get to a Big Crank event before now but the new job has kept me too busy.
This will be my first organized ride and easily the farthest I will have ever ridden - all offers of encouragement and coaching are encouraged! See you on Sunday morning.

Subject: [Big Crank Cycling] Prairie Pedal this Sunday!
Hi Big Crank - Come join us for a little bike on the prairie
this Sunday. Here is the skinny:
We will meet at 8:15 am at Hamel Community Park
10 Park Ave, Hamel, IL 62046
Ride choices are 26, 37, or 44 miles - flat & rolling with a few big hills on the longer routes.
$8 for Trailnet members and $12 for non-members. I have two $3 discount coupons for the first two people to arrive. You can also visit www.trailnet. org for more details.
Directions: Take I-55 north in Illinois to the Hamel exit #30 (exit is 10 miles
north of I-270). Turn left on IL-140; go west through Hamel one mile
and turn left into the park. Parking also available at the school next
to the park.
Don't forget your jersey if you have one and that pesky helmet - a must have on all Big Crank & Trailnet rides.
Ride leader: Claire Wyneken 314-324-9722
