As you know, several inches of snow were supposed to arrive tonight, but now they are saying we'll be spared more snow this weekend.

It looks like the weather Saturday will be favorable for an outdoor ride at 1:00 – our first club ride in 2018.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to join you, because I'll be ice fishing in Door County this weekend.

Garneau's store for RCC will re-open soon. We are setting the final pricing before we open the store again around February 6.
