St. Louis Brevet Updates

Happy June. I hope you are riding, and more importantly, enjoying your riding. I wanted to send out this email for several purposes.

First, is an event reminder, June 26 is the last opportunity this year to complete a 400K and or a 600K. June 26 also have a 200K and 300K option. Registration for all of these rides is 3:00 AM to 3:45 AM with all riders departing Edwardsville at 4:00 AM. You can, of course, register the morning of the event. Lights and reflective gear are required for all riders.

Next, I am looking for a volunteer to help with the bag drop on the 600K ride. Bags will be dropped at the Limited Inn in Vienna (mile 212 or so) by 6PM, and will be delivered back to Edwardsville the following morning between noon and 1 PM. The volunteer can either drop bags off and head home (returning in the morning) or stay in a shared room in Vienna. If you are not planning on riding, and would be willing to volunteer, please contact me via email and we can discuss the details.

I would also like to reminder riders of several 200 and 300K opportunities later this summer. July 17 in Edwardsville is a 200K/300K option.

July 31 will have a 300K event (new this year) starting in Marion IL (southern IL). If at all possible, please come down for this Marion event and provide feedback on the route. This may be good hill training for those wanting to head to Paris, or those who think the other 300Ks are just too flat.

On August 21 in Edwardsville is a 200K and 300K option and this will be the final events on the 2010 calendar.

Please check my website for registration and ride times for all events. Thanks for your time, and keep riding strong, and safe. Again, if you would be interested in volunteering, please contact me. Your help and support for the St. Louis brevet series is greatly appreciated.
