I'm posting for Kara whose blog page won't let her publish because of a gadget.  "East Birdeye is hosting a ride Memorial Day at 10 am with burgers afterward.  The route will be 25-30 miles or shorter if you choose.  Let Kara know if you're rolling out".

I'm glad Birdeye is continuing the Memorial Day bike ride tradition.  We'll need to be on the lookout for the Gearhead group who come to Birdeye every Memorial Day, they leave at 7 am (I think) and are here around about 9:30 ish.  I know last year I spotted Ted Herget on a hybrid near Cherry Valley, I nearly died (that was what 35 miles one way to Cherry Valley from Jonesboro...:))  He also won the Midsouth Championship Marathon this past November.

See ya'll Monday! -Keeli

Road Bike Ride this Saturday

Monday, October 1, 2012

Happy Anniversary Kyle and Cecelia!  I saw this in our church bulletin!  What a fun couple to hang with at bike rides and bike races.  And an early birthday shout out to John B. Shepherd on Saturday, Jackie's on Monday and Becca Jackson's on Tuesday...that's a ton of BBC birthdays and anniversaries I might say!

Ok, I am volunteering to do the Turkey Trot at the Wynne School's Health Fair on Saturday from 10-2.  A far as I've been told, this is walking/running around the track Saturday.  Who would like to volunteer to host Saturday at say, 2:30?  If there are no Wynne people, I can host a 2:30 ride from Birdeye.  I'd say go for a 25-30 mile ride and let's talk about the upcoming Gearhead Cyclocross event at Village Creek on Sunday, Nov. 4.  They don't take early entries, you enter the day of the event, just fyi.  I know that Adam Leslie, park interpreter, will be helping organize the cyclocross.  I cannot wait for the event, I hope it's great weather Nov. 4.

Since it's going to rain Saturday, I'm putting the brakes on a ride Saturday!  See ya'll next week! -Keeli

Bike ride moved to Sunday, February 5, at Birdeye

Ok....with the chance of rain all afternoon, Kara's moved the bike ride to her house for 2 pm tomorrow.  It is Super Bowl Sunday so plans are to watch the game at least until halftime.  Kara's serving up boston butt, I'm making Stan's Southern Living Broccoli Salad and Kara's making a dessert for post bike ride fun!  If you're coming, let us know and we'll have you bring an appetizer or something!!  Fire up for tomorrow's ride, it's to be sunny with a high of 52 degrees with NW winds at 5-10 mph.  See ya'll then! -Keeli
