The 10th season of the FOGBEE YMCA SPIN!

Forgot to post this on our blog but I've text message most of the regular spinners. Our 10th year of spinning begins tonight at 6:20 at the Hendersonville YMCA. Spin is on Tuesday and Thursday at 6:20 p.m. and at 10 a.m. on Saturday if the weather does not permit an outside ride. Hard to believe it's been 10 years. Come join us for some camaraderie and exercise. Gary

Le Ride

This might be of interest to the FOGBEES:
LE RIDE follows Phil Keoghan and his friend Ben Cornell as they attempt to recreate the original route of the 1928 Tour de France. Averaging 240km a day for 26 days, Phil and Ben traverse both the unforgiving mountains of the Pyrenees and the Alps, on original vintage steel racing bikes with no gears and marginal brakes.
Date: Thu, Nov 9, 2017 6:30 PM

Where: Regal Hollywood Stadium 27  RPX - Nashville
                   719 Thompson Lane, Nashville, TN, 37204, United States


The distribution company, Demand Film, will also release MAMIL (Middle Age Men in Lycra).

Regards,

The Amazing Way Bicycles Change You

Been to Amsterdam and heard the story of how mothers changed the culture for bicycles. Hendersonville residents crab about traffic.  I know how they can fix the problem. Takes more than talk or synchronizing traffic lights.

Discount on HOT 100

Forgive the delay in getting this to you – as I typically offer a discount to our sister clubs. This one is good through Monday evening and takes $10 off the fee.  No guarantee of a t-shirt at this late date though.

Coupon code = MBCPres.

Hope to see you there!

We're about 10 days from our annual get away ride to Red Boiling Springs.

Below is a list of who I know is going:

Grubb    2
Miley     2
Kate       1
Lindsay  1

If you are not listed above but are going please let me know, I need to give the Armour's Hotel a head count for dinner. Marsha, Sherry and Traci are coordinating snacks for after the ride and fun on the porch so if you can help out let one of them or myself know.
I will send one more update next week with routes including a route to Hartsville and back to Gallatin for anyone that would like to ride on Saturday with us to have lunch and return to the start.
The long range forecast looks great, cool but with lots of sunshine!! Don't miss out, it's going to be a fun weekend with great friends. Hope to see you there.
Roll FOGBEES!!
Woody
