Ferry-Roubaix Pre-Registration is Open

For a limited time we are offering a deep, deep discount on the already free registration for this incredible event. Don't forget we have added a short (well kinda) loop for those of you just coming out of hibernation. Others will not have that option.

We roll at 9:00 am, April 10 people, from New Kent, Virginia



here's about 150k for ya (no Ferry, but you get to go to Roubaix).

here's about 200k for us other dorks.

Don't forget, we have sag support, a lunch stop, and a nice race to the finish. Scottie D. is kicking in some sweet finishers' prizes. Oh yeah, there will also be a nice pancake breakfast for those of you who can get here early enough.






Finally, we will be offering the Roubaix challenge: ride with us on Saturday, then head for the hills for the Harris-Roubaix on Sunday. There is absolutely no reward or award for that level of stupidity.

Bring your smack here to register.

Good News/Bad News

You might have an opinion on this, if you weren't so damn stoned all the time!

Anybody else...

...feeling like this right now?

Your gonna need permission from the Mayor...

If you want to ride this:


Did some exploration with the Jedi Masters yesterday. Learned how to properly carry a light sabre, and use it to clear trails. I would usually tell you where this is and post a map, but not this time. Let's just say that epic urban loop is getting bigger, and um, well, more urban.

Bringing Tonto along to watch your back doesn't hurt either.


Notice how the rails are all rusty, nothing has traveled this line in a long time.

Salut, Gerry!

Today, and for a long time to come, Foghorn mourns the passing of a good friend. Gerry Reid quietly qualified for the next stage yesterday at Duke Medical Center, the result of a horrific traffic accident Monday morning. Needless to say, the Foghorn team will be a man down for quite a while. Gerry wasn't an avid cyclist, but I do distinctly remember that neon orange Fuji mountain bike, circa 1993, which he held onto forever. I'm almost positive it's still in his garage. I was fortunate enough to spend a year in Raleigh after college, where Gerry showed me the local trails.

For Gerry, I imagine heaven is an infinite hockey rink, with plenty of homebrew, and a few hand rolled cigs. I hope it is so. Godspeed, good man, skate on, we'll look for you on the other side.

Salute, Gerry!
