THURSDAY, December 13th - Embassy Suites Loop - 9 AM Start

The temperatures and conditions look possible for a ride this Thursday.  Since the temps areforecast to be 37 degrees all morning I thought we might as well start 9 AM and ride the entire ride without a breakfast stop.  After the 27 mile route we could do breakfast/lunch at the Cracker Barrel.

If we decide not to ride we could do breakfast anyway.

Here is the route I have in mind:

ON A SAD NOTE

Some of you knew Krysia Gornicki who led many a ride from Embassy Suites (where I learned many of the routes I use for Thursday rides) and was a frequent volunteer for club rides.  She was often the first one to sign-up for the Jack & Coke Ride.  Krysia lost her battle with cancer on December 3rd.  Here is a link to her obituary  Services are slated for January at a date yet to be set.

UPCOMING FUN RIDES
Annual Santa and Christmas Lights Ride

Thursday December 20 - gather @ 6:15, Ride leaves at 6:30 
Where: the parking lot behind HOOPERS in Brookside. We will ride through the Plaza dressed in Holiday finery on Bikes decorated with lights, following Santa with his sled blasting Christmas music. We will make a stop in Loose Park for refreshments and then proceed on to the amazingly decorated neighborhoods near Brookside. 
The more the Merrier!  There will be lots of Santas, some reindeer, some elves, perhaps a Grinch and assorted other costumes.  Lit up bikes are cool as well.  This is a great time.  I hope to see you all there.
