Monday, November 14, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the DOT downtown office building located at 1001 W. St. Paul Avenue in Milwaukee.  Chris Larson and other elected officials from MKE will be there.  Unfortunately I will be in class, but a show of support would be a good thing.  Attend if you can.

I've become a pretty avid road biker the last few years and thought I would try mountain biking.  I realize it's late in the year, but, I will give it a go this weekend.

I dove in head first and bought a Trek 4300.  Hopefully it's good enough for a novice like myself.

Any pointers anyone would like to share??

Can anyone tell me if I will be okay using a racing bike on the Oak Leaf Trail in Wisconsin? I'm planning a bike tour around the trail but I'm not from the area.  Descriptions of the trail say that it is asphalt, is that correct?

...haven't been riding much in a while--though I've been doing a lot of running. Still want to get back in the saddle---will get out to the Alpha soon!

Metro Mountain friends,

Hey everyone,

My brand new seat bag unzipped itself and jettisoned my CO2 inflator onto the trail at Crystal Ridge / Alpha. It was likely on the Alpha section. If anyone finds it please let me know. The inflator is black and the kind where the cartridge is inside the inflator body.

Thanks! Mike

However, how would you like to join my cycling team to ride 150 miles over two days for the Leukemia and Lymphoma society on July, 23+24, 2011?  We ride from Mequon to…

Marty, Thanks much to you and Al and anyone else who had a hand in building and placing those boardwalk sections in the HD trail. They helped make a very raceable course yesterday. Also, thanks for the water sprayer at the top of the switchbacks. You have no idea how good that felt.
