Post 29:
I sit on the local bike collective board. And last week I took on the chair position for the board of "The Bridges Ride". It will be a family focus bike path ride that has a 60ish, 40ish and 30ish mile options. Being on the re-birth of the ride post CoVid social distancing is interesting. Some people still have reservations about meeting in person. And that is okay. I know where my level of risk is and I am able to respect those peoples wishes and meet virtually to accomindate their concerns and still have them particpate in a meaningful matter.
Back to the ride, right now the plan is the Bike Collective leads the ride and we will take on other board memebers for the ride as it gains momentum and speed. I know we picked up two more board memebers this week from Cedar Valley Trail Partnership. They will provide the insurance and other things for a sucessful ride.
There is talk of an actual band playing at the final formal stop (Not the finish) of the ride. There is talk of breakfast stop, a coffee and doughnut stop. Lots of talk going on as group of people spit ball ideas out. It will be interesting to see how this ride takes shape for May 14th 2022. At this time it is a FREE ride. Yes, we will mostly have a donation jar out to help the Cedar Valley Trail Partnership. But Dave, is it not a Cedar Valley Bike Collective event? Yes it is, but other than this blog post our concept is to be the muscle on this event and put other bike organizations in the fore front. Please remeber we have the Great American Rail Trail coming through town. So in my head, I want that to happen in my life time, so this is my selfish way of pushing money to that.
Stay tuned for more as this develops.
Cheers and Godspeed.
If you know you know Guitar Ted and I have been doing a lot of Podcasting in the last year. I can hear the improvements already. I have my issues, and I tend to over speak Mark way more than I should. In my defense, some pauses seem to be extraordinarily long and feels like dead air. So I interject. Then I listen back and I hear no pause In the moment it seems like a life time has passed. We chat over text messages about topics or subjects we are interested in or exploring. That is how we develop our subjects for a show. I have asked for and I really want to do a interview with a specific person that may be controversial. But I am also ignorant to a lot of things, so maybe the time is never right for that interview, who knows? I do enjoy some of the feed back from the shows. The ones I love is "not enough time spent on a topic". I enjoy those comments. I really want to say, you sir are correct that is intentional. If we dove into topics fully, we would be
