Cozy Beehive: Alma 100 resport from Ron...

Good report!

Cozy Beehive: Alma 100:
"On Father's Day I decided to go out to put some long miles in rural country. This adventure included one of my favorite spots to climb. Known as Alma Hill Road, in Alma NY, it happens to be the highest point in Western New York at 760m above sea level. At 4 miles and 1000 feet of climbing on dirty, grainy, rain washed road at an average of 5-6% gradient (steepest around 12%), it will quickly tell you whether you are in climbing shape, or if you aren't, readily provide a poorly done road before you to blame and vent your frustration onto."

Thurs and Sat ride

From Jo Ann

Just a reminder that there is a group ride leaving from Lincoln Park in Olean today at 6 pm. Route is approximately 30 miles--give or take.

Saturday morning in the Interfaith Caregivers rider leaving from the Allegany River Park. The 100k ride leaves at 8:30 with registration starting at 8 am. Don't be late or you'll miss the "Bo Train". It's my understanding that it is the same route as last year. The shorter rider leave at time increments after that. If anyone wants to wimp on down with me, I'll be doing the 50k ride this year.

See you tonight and Saturday!!!!
