Hey BBTC, I hope you got out and rode this past week. Although the temps were on the colder side of the thermometer, the sun was bright and the skies blue. And this week the temps will be warmer so get out and ride! What do you think of the new calendar layout? Eric and Raleigh have done a great job in creating it. They have put in some quality time developing the new format and I know for me it makes for an easy view to see what rides are available any day of the month, Kudos guys! While Mr. McCool had done a great job with the newsletter this past year, I have to say Jeanne is taking it to the next level. Way to go Jeanne, and WOW the pdf version really stands out with all the great color, and it really is nice seeing the photos in color and clarity. Our in house printer Vanessa deserves major accolades for her time and patience in publishing our newsletter every month, keep it up Vanessa. By the way, I bet she would love some extra hands each month when it comes time to fold all those newsletters that we receive in the mail. Anyway, this week's weather is looking fantastic for riding, so get out and enjoy! Pedal Fast and Laugh Often! Rob Y.
