Saturday Ride

Once again, the forecast for the weekend is not encouraging however,

there is hope.  Meet at Mal-Mar at 10:30 if it is not raining.  Call Malcolm

for conformation if there a window of opportunity of if it's only sprinkling.

 

Saturday's ride

To be really honest, Saturday does not look like the best day of the year to ride,

high is forecast to be 50* and windy.  But, we have to get ready for all of the

Christmas goodies we'll eat next week so, meet at Mal-Mar at 10:00, dress warm.

Fw: New Years Eve Menu

 

 

Subject: New Years Eve Menu

 

Sherman, Malcolm
 
Here's what I came up with as a New Year's Menu.
There are four courses including the Salad.

It would be $45 per person (not $49) based on folks
pre ordering their selection (this saves money aka waste).
 
Thanks
Tony

New Year's Eve

Had a conversation with Malcolm yesterday.  He has been talking with Chef Tony and it looks

like we may be able to have a New Year's party at Tony's place.  Here's the skinny: Tony will offer

a fixed menu, appetizer, salad, entre' and dessert; one seating priced at $49.00 per person.

 

If you have not made plans and would like for this to go further, I need to know quickly.  Please

respond to my e-mail (srengland@comcast.net) so that we can get a count.

Malcolm says 10:00 Saturday morning! Dress warm, winter will be

returning during the day!  Acclimate!

Well, after today it looks like winter is here to stay.  Looked like it was ready to

snow all day long.  I hope that Saturday will be better, the high is forecast to be

59*, we'll just have to see.  Meet at Mal-Mar at 10:00 and we'll go somewhere.

Saturday Ride

Meet at Ballou Park Saturday morning, more work at 'the clubhouse'.

Well,t's going to be cold on Saturday morning! Malcolm has agreed to wait til 10:30

so it can warm up some, we're not read to ride in 34* weather.  I've got a stew to do

so I can't go early anyway. Meet at Mal-Mar.

 

See you at 10:30.

Sherman

Saturday

Riding from Eddie's house in the morning at 10.  Stew at Eddie's house at 4:00 PM

Sounds like a really good day.  See you there

Saturday Ride / After ride stew

OK guy's, Eddie has a plan for us this weekend.  We'll meet at his house at 10:00 and ride,

then, after the ride an opportunity to enjoy a stew and fellowship and liquid refreshments.

The stew should be ready at 4:00.  This will give you time to change into something more

comfortable than your riding kit if you would like to do that.  If you can't ride, you are still invited

to come and socialize and enjoy the stew.

 

E-mail me at srengland@comcast.net if you need directions to Eddie's house.  It would be nice to

know how many people are going to be there.  More info later

called Emma's Ride. This ride starts at 9:00 Saturday morning at Anglers park and offers distances

of 5, 10, 20 and 30 miles.  The fee is $20.00 (I think) with proceeds going to Emma's family to help

pay for her medical bills.

 

If you want to participate, we will meet at Mal-Mar and depart for Anglers at 8:30.  After completing the

30 mile ride, we will determine another destination and continue our ride.

 

See you on Saturday

 

Emma's ride

I've been asked to forward this message to all COD's.  This is from Spin Bicycle Shop in Danville. This ride will start at 9:00 am.  If you want to do more we could do this and then go to Ruffin or even further if you want.

 

We ask you to please come out and help us support five year old Emma in her fight against cancer.

Spin Bike Shop and others are sponsoring a cycling event starting at Angler's Park in Danville. Cyclists of all levels are welcomed and encouraged to attend. There will be four different distance routes to ride (5, 10, 20, and 30 miles). You can ride at your own pace or join a group. For those who want to ride but don't own a bike we encourage you to stop by our store or call for details regarding our affordable rental bikes (including a limited number of our new Pedego electric bikes).

Entry fee is $20 per rider and the first 300 entries will receive a free shirt.
To pre-register please stop by Spin Bike Shop to fill out an entry form.

All proceeds will go to Emma's family.

Meet at Mal-Mar for an 8:30 departure Saturday. Let's hope that the weather is drier than it was for the century guys last weekend in Hillsboro.

We should be ok for the morning.  See you then.

as far as you want and some of us can leave the party early and get home

before the pavement melts.
