Back in the Saddle

I rode the Panzer today for nearly 30 miles. It is a testament to my fitness level that I even write about a ride of this length. Yet, about halfway into this ride, I was on form. The miles were ticking away, I was spinning (the fixie always stays with me) & I had forgotten about work. Now, I remember why I love cycling! In other news, the order for the "King of the Road" jerseys has been finalized. There will be 20 of these beauties made! The next jersey in the pipeline is a short sleeve woolie! Details to come soon. Pictured above is the Schnoctobeerfest 2008 sticker, designed by eDBiLLy. The Bike & Beer Buffet is Saturday, October 18th. The video for the day is an oldie, but a goodie! When I was in high school, I loved the Cars. The KeRNeL loved the Cars. Here's a live cut from 1979, with the one Cars song I never grow tired of: "All Mixed Up". Ben Orr was a great vocalist.

Sunday is the Deadline!

Want a "King of the Road" jersey? Let me know by Sunday! In other news, eDBiLLy vows to have the shed ready for Schnoctobeerfest 2008! Are you ready?

WTF?

This is eDBiLLy's shed: or should I say, this was what it looked like. Last Friday, a 115 mph wind flattened it to the ground. We went there on Monday & assisted with clean-up. It was hard to fathom that this was due to wind, & not a tornado. Thankfully, the whole Greteman clan is safe. I'll post pics as soon as I get them.

The Epitome of Cool

Peter O'Toole has always fascinated me. You just know that throwing down a single pint with the man would lead to a story that would be with you the rest of your life.

CiTy BiLLy NoRtH, wearing the colors

From the sponsoring newspaper, here's some stylin' fellas rockin their workshirts on "Ride with the KeRNeL" day. Great pic B-BiLLy, K-BiLLy, the KeRNeL & the MuScLe!

Update from Tdk

The KeRNeL & the CiTy BiLLy North contingent called me this afternoon from a drinking establishment in Huron,SD (today is "Ride with the KeRNeL" day). Sounds like they rode through rain for something like 23 miles, all the time rocking their CiTy BiLLy workshirts! This will definitely merit a special toast at Schnoctobeerfest 2008 (tentative date: Saturday October 18th). The pic to the left is the KeRNeL, eDBiLLy & I (always the slowest) on the first TdK.
