Happy 2013! Can you believe that another riding season is upon us? I am sitting here on March 16, 2013 looking out my window and seeing a 3 inch blanket of snow on the ground. Last year at this time the weather was in the 70-80's which for Chicago area is unseasonably warm. In fact last year for the month of March I was able to ride about 2500 miles. The most miles that I have ever ridden in March around here. Anyway, I am looking forward to another riding season. As I am writing this blog there are some in our group preparing to ride the unpaved roads! Yes that would be Joe and Ron. I believe they are preparing for the Trans America Trail or TAT. Good luck to them. I think this year we are planning to go back to Americade. This year Americade is extending the Expo on the Beach Front for the whole week from Saturday to Saturday. I will assume this is done to compete with all of the vendors in Warrensburg. Anyway, mark your calendars for the first week in June, 2013 and plan to go to Upstate New York!
Ride safe,
Jp
