Centralized for us living in the Wild, Wild Western Suburbs! Thanks, committee, for bringing the party to us.

We can celebrate my birthday concommitantly. ;)

Shira and I are co-sponsoring a tandem pointless prize. Tag your tandem rides with #tandem and we'll award a prize to whoever has done the most tandem rides. Photos of tandems on Strava or on this...

Motive: I so, so, soooo want to do the tandem contest again, but I also want to win it again! (Since its the only prize I have...

I love how the focus of the blurb is for motorists to avoid the scene, presumably to not be inconvenienced. I know, I know, its a traffic report, but...

[QUOTE=drevil;207485]2/10/21 - 5 or 6 point Star (but not on American flag)

Not only is there a star, but this photo 23930 features another prominent thing on today's ride: driving sleet.
