Let’s head to St. Paul this Saturday. We’ll gather outside of Starbucks at 08:00 and head north, following our Marshall Ave route clockwise. The weather will be warm and sunny with little or no wind from the north.

If you haven’t already done so, please read my announcement about Riding During the COVID-19 Pandemic.

I want to share an epic ride that started on Sunday, June 14. Minnesotan Keith Morical started his attempt to set a Guinness World Record for the fastest time to visit 48 contiguous US states by bicycle. Starting in Walla Walla, Washington and ending in Kittery, Maine, the “W” shaped route is 7,100 miles (11,400 km) long, with over 212,000 ft (64,600 m) of climbing. That is a full 70% longer than the Trans America Bike Race. You can learn more and follow progress at: https://www.actualiz.org/events. This page also has a spot watcher link. He should be riding through Minnesota in a few days. Feel free to join the conversation on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/KeithActualiz/) and Strava. His team will post video and picture updates daily.

I have your kit orders available for pickup before or after our rides. We also have RCC kit available for purchase.

Regular riders are expected to contribute annual dues of $20, which we primarily use for the club’s website and club activities, like our annual Winter Gathering. Dues can be paid with cash, check, Google Pay, PayPal, and Venmo.
