May 14 and 15 Bike Ride

Hello Summit Bikers,

It is time to take the bikes out of winter storage and prepare for another biking season.  Chains should be clean and lubricated, wheels pumped up, brakes checked and in general make sure everything is tight.  For those bikers not confident in their ability to get their bike to top working order take it in to one of the local bike shops.

Many of our members have either moved or have a second home along the front range so this year we are having a two day ride there, May 14 and 15th.  The first day we will do a ride near Anthem Ranch, with a pot luck picnic dinner in the evening.  Steve Ladin has agreed to lead the first day's ride near Anthem and to host a pot luck dinner together with Sandy Ladin and Bonnie Guthrie.  The second day will be led by Barry Lazarus nearer Denver.  This may be followed by a lunch out, more details to follow.  Since most of us have to make a run to the Front Range for Costco, Applejacks and other needs I encourage you to plan to make those stops as part of this two day ride.  

Possibilities for lodging include, friends at Anthem, or there are a few hotels close by.  In order to plan for this trip we would like to get an idea of those who plan to come.  I am working with members who live in Anthem to see who will be a available and may be willing to lodge some of us for one night.  Please respond to me at Bikebreck@yahoo.com.

Details are still being worked out, however I wanted to give everyone a heads up that things are in the planning stage for another great biking season.

Ride Safe,

John Bowyer
