~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The 13th Annual Tour de Lilly is here!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

when: Saturday October 2nd, 2010

where: Meet at Blackwater Bikes in morning ready to ride around 10ish AM.

what to bring: The obvious spare tubes, pump and multi-tool that should always be a must when riding. If you really want to cover yourself include a chain quicklink and spare derailleur hanger. Even though lunch will be provided, bring alot of water and snacks because it's a long ride.

who/what: As always, this is a long ride and it's not for wimps or whiners!!! The pace might be casual, but if you are a novice mountain biker, this ride is probably not for you because of length and difficulty of some of the trails and you might be in over your head and slow the group way down. (Sorry, this is just not a beginner ride!) Roger usually supplies tshirts and lunch for everyone on-trail somewhere if logistically possible. Often there is a mid-way bailout point if you can't commit to the whole ride.

FEE: just show up to ride and enjoy the day with your bike and friends. How the hell can you beat that?!

Afterwards be sure to enjoy some food at Siriannis next door or Hellbender Burritos across the street. Then head up to the Mountain State Brewing Company a few miles up the rd for their 5th anniversary birthday party with $1 drafts and free live music by local musicians, and headlining Freakbass!!
