Moab/Fuita 2007

I have not done this for awhile, but since I broke my Tarmac and my hand, I have some time.

This trip to Moab/Fruita was the best for riding. Ended up with over 330 miles in five days.
Here are a few pics. (I do not take many pic, because I rather be riding)

Super

Here is a message Judge Mike
MABCers---

Nothing like a few weeks on the trainer to make an outdoor ride seem
heavenly. Five club members rode yesterday. Beginning temp 18 degrees and
ended at a balmy 23. Sunny with light wind made it almost comfortable!
Next up on the club calendar is the Frigid Fifty on Sunday, February 25th.
1pm start meeting at the Bike Shed, 1800 2nd Ave.

On television will be the Tour of California. This race starts on Feb 18
and will be broadcast on Versus (cable channel 58).

MABC Club Minutes

January 23, 2007 Club Minutes by Diane Hand

President Jed Bespalec called the meeting to order. Seventeen members were present. New officers for year 2007 are as follows:

President, Kevin
Vice President, Albert
Treasurer, Paul
Secretary, Diane

Treasurer Paul Talbert gave an update on the Club’s finances. It was decided that dues should be paid annually in January. It was discussed that a postcard may be sent out to members to notify them of this change.

The club will pay for LAB membership and insurance to cover our club riders. Terry Lamb motioned that this is paid and Tom Nickerson second the motion.

If you haven’t had an opportunity yet, check out the new blog site. It was proposed that the old MABC 50 meg site will be closed down and transferred to The Bike Shed’s site when it is completed. Right now the blog site has MABC information posted on it. Mike sent out an email Wednesday morning with the address of the site. It is http://www.mid-americabicycleclub.blogspot.com/

Mike is doing a ride schedule. For February we have a Super Bowl ride on February 4th starting at 1:00 p.m. leaving from MONA parking lot weather permitting. Our Frigid 50 ride will be February 25th starting at 1:00 p.m. starting from The Bike Shed weather permitting.

Tuesday night rides will start March 13th at 6:00 p.m. leaving from MONA parking lot. The time will be moved back to 6:15 p.m. in April. Todd suggested that the weekly mountain bike ride be changed to Thursday nights leaving from Bico’s. Kevin mentioned starting a beginners ride possibly on Monday’s riding on the bike trail. If anyone has ideas for this ride let him know.

The Grand Fondo ride will be Saturday, May 19th. Time has not been determined yet. Same courses as last year-metric century, a 30-mile option and a 15-mile option.

Kevin would like to have a century ride in August. It will be a club ride to Johnson Lake and back and will be on Saturday, August 25th. More to follow on these upcoming rides.

Todd is checking on companies to do another club jersey this year. If anyone has input on colors or etc. let him know.

Meeting was adjourned by President, Jed Bespalec.
