WHY DO PEOPLE NOT TALK TO US ABOUT THESE THINGS???

OUWxGuesser · « **Reply #82 on:** September 28, 2011, 08:58:26 AM »

I'm going to try and go to the meeting. Obviously there is some sort of exposure issue for the club?

Sal Atticum · « **Reply #83 on:** September 28, 2011, 10:04:57 AM »

Honestly, I think it's because we bill ourselves as a fun/racing club rather than an advocacy club. We've never had the numbers of interested people needed to have a voice in these sorts of things.

Glad you can try to go to the meeting. This could be huge for marketing cycling (or running, or lollerblading) as a viable activity for people in Grand Forks and in Thompson.

Apparently there has been a rash of bike vandalism on U. of Oklahoma's campus. The culprits have targeted bicycle seats...

Spinning topic as of late:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPowpIRVOuY

[Translation To English:]

The hell of north Paris-Roubaix,
The Cote d'Azur and Saint Tropez
The Alps and the Pyrennees
Last stage Champs-Elysees
Galibier and Tourmalet
Dancing to the top
Bycicling at high gear
Final sprint at the finish
Flat tire on the paving stones
The bike is repaired quickly
The peloton is regrouped
Comrades and friendship

And the whole album they put out of the same title:
