#BikeIowaCity with Core4

 P

ost 36:

    Iowa cycling will be getting a new race.  Reading the early information teases, I can tell you three things.  The race is named Core 4, it will be on the 27th of August, 2022, and it will be inspired by the Rule of Three race. 

     I am excited by being able to go to a race that has a distance of 100miles, and riding tarmac, gravel and single track from Sugar Bottom to Coralville.  I am not sure where the start and finish line, but I know the general area it will be in.  

    For now race fans, I would say plan on a 40mm or wider tire.  I am guessing it will be a 100 mile-ish course with some of the charting I have seen.  For now as information comes out, I would encourage following they Instagram account Core4.bike or follow the Hashtags #core4gravel and #bikeiowacity. 


Cheers and Godspeed

Dave

The Dave Roll Waterloo Christmas Light Ride on 29th of November

     Yes, we are starting a Waterloo Christmas ride. It is not intended to do anything other than be a reason to ride a bike a short distance and be around others. The length is a whopping 3 miles. To sum that is more miles than they have rode for the previous 10 years. That is the person I want there. If you want to bang out miles and demonstrate your cycling skills, there is a ride in Cedar Falls on the 5th of December for that.  I believe they are meeting up 6pm and leaving from Overmen Park.       When: 29 November 2023 @ 6pm      Where: Kingsley Elementary School parking lot.  On the street parking is fine, look for No Parking sides.      Route: Link Here on Strava App      Ending: Lighthouse Lounge, bring a bike lock.   Parking is extremely limited, Also it is a Cash Only Bar.      See what happens this year, and may be this grows, who knows.  I started the Cedar Fall...

A glimpse behind the podcast

       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...

Cameron Crusher Recap

     Well it has been a few months.  Are you shocked I still have access to this account?  Well a lot has occurred since the last post, Ella has joined the great hunt in the sky.  And that sort of drove why I was going back to New York in the fall, and also it had nothing to do with it.  It was an expected outcome with how her health and mobility was rapidly declining since Christmas.       In April I took a look at my work schedule with projects coming up and then overlaid any gravel/bike rides in New York during that window.  I logged on to Bike Reg and I came across the Keuka Lake Gravel Classic put on by Steuben Strong Independent Cycling .  I went to their website I saw the Cameron Crusher race date, October 8th.  From there I asked Morgan if she wanted to see the trees turn again.  It was decided, and registered in May.     After I registered I was riding pretty strong and then summer happened. ...
