The Calendar of Events for 2012 has been updated on the website. Ralph will be hosting a 200K in March and a 300K in April in the Springfield Missouri area. For the St. Louis area, we will be hosting two full ACP series (200, 300, 400 & 600K) out of Edwardsville Illinois.
I know winter is creeping up on us, and this morning is was below freezing for the first time, but I suggest everyone take a nice break from cycling then come back and prepare for next season.

Wrap It Up
Yes, I know, there is still one more brevet this weekend. But I am also assuming some of you are wondering where your brevet cards are. I did get an email a week ago from RUSA. They just received a big shipment of brevet stickers. However, RUSA is a little busy with PBP.
I would expect the stickers sometime early September. I will then spend some mind numbing evenings watching tv and applying stickers to all those cards and get them in the mail to you as quick as possible.
Even before the final brevet in St. Louis is ridden, I want to say a thank you to the solo rider who braved a 4-5 inch snow storm to ride and finish, to those who rode in the rain, those who rode through flooded roads after a massive downpour, and finished, to those who rode into headwinds, and a few tailwinds, to those who rode in the heat and humidity in June and July and finished, and to every single person who came out and tried their best and had a good time despite the results.

600K and Wilkey's Diner
I just got off the phone with the good folks at Wilkey's Diner in Belle Rive. The restaurant is open for business and will be open on Saturday as riders pass through.
While Wilkey's is not an official checkpoint this year, I do highly recommend stopping in and having something to eat and refill your bottles for the trip down to Thompsonville.
These are very nice folks who run this restaurant, and are very accommodating to us crazy two wheel pedallers. Be kind to them and they will bend over backwards to encourage you to get back on your bike and down the road.
