Hello Summit Bikers,
The ride this week starts from the Day Lodge on the Frisco Peninsula (this is the large building at the bottom of the tubing hill). The ride is dedicated to Bill Pritchard, one of Summit Bikers greatest supporters. His tragic loss earlier this year will be felt strongly by our community. He was always willing to lead a ride when needed or do traffic control in Dillon on Saturday nights after the concerts. The ride will go either up to Copper Mountain or around the lake to Soda Creek so that participants can return in time for a Celebration of Life service inside the Day Lodge.
The Celebration of Life will be held between noon and 2 pm and all are invited. Everyone is invited to stay (in your bike clothes - but no cleats inside the building). A light lunch and non-alcoholic beverages will be provided so there is no need to bring lunch this week.
If by chance we have rotten weather again Monday the Celebration of Life will still take place at noon.
On August 8 we will have a ride from Team Managers where Stewart Voutour will give us a short technical bike talk prior to the ride. If you have a specific question that you would like addressed send me an email at bikebreck@yahoo.com. More details on this ride when we closer to the date.
If you have an emergency during the bike ride and need help my cell phone is 970 333-1806. Do not leave messages but I will try to answer.
John Bowyer
