Jay Hardcastle, HOOTS Chair Time Flies

It seems just yesterday I was pulling the DALMAC flag off my Single, but that was Labor Day! 3 Great HOOTS rides this fall, and then on to Hilly Hundred, which had a great 41st running in Elletsville, IN. The boys and I didn't ride the first day, since we working with 6 other volunteers were working on one of Hilly's Saturday night traditions. In just 24 hours we sorted through 3,000 digit… Continue

Jay Hardcastle, HOOTS Chair Another Great Weekend

Our CIBA camping ride, Justin's Sweet Corn Ride was 66% tandem, and we may have "hooked" another team in the process. I also had fun demonstrating 1 burner cooking, just with a very big pot. Justin and I had good time together, as did the rest of the group. It was amazing to see the difference a summer of serious riding can make in a growing teen-ager. Justin had worked up to 80 miles with me through a steady series of weekend 40 to 50 mi… Continue

Hi All: Thanks to everyone who has signed in, and for the positive comments. The site has turned out well, and has a lot of possibilities.
