We rode from Houston to Fayetteville on Saturday and enjoyed the nice weather with a tail wind all the way. On Sunday, we rode in the Fayetteville Parade. We stayed at Tom Vining's Bed and Breakfast. The accomodations and dinner provided at such a low cost were a great value to club members. Thanks Tom!

Bear Creek Criterium
At first things did not look good for the weekend at all with a 50 - 60% chance of rain. Instead it was blistering hot and humid.
We had a good turn out inspite of the threating rain. Then, when it as all said and done, seconds from the finish of the last race, it finally decided to rain and cool things off a bit. Thanks to all who stayed and helped pick up, and to all who raced, Club members or not. See ya in '07.

Year's Day Resolution Ride - 01/01/2003
This yearly tradition consists of doing the death
ride route, at a hangover pace followed by an
incredible breakfast spread at Herb's house. The
weather started off a little chilly, but we had
a nice size 20+ group for this ride in and around
downtown. We finished near memorial park for a
homemade breakfast that we didn't nearly ride
hard enough to deserve.
