Christmas Lights from Doc

Some of you might have stopped by to see the display some of you might not even know about it.  This is my second year putting up a Christmas Light show to music.  This is what I'm working on when I'm not riding a bike.  If you have the chance stop by 1079 McLaughlin Ct, Gallatin to check out the show.  If you want to follow the show like me on BooneShineFamilyLights.

The Farm Out and Back Ride and Tailgate Party, Saturday, 10/3/20

 This Saturday, as Jack and Back has been canceled, it is being replaced by The Farm Out and Back Ride.  You guessed it, we will ride from The Farm at 8:00.  Dave Miley will  be planning the route.

After the ride, we will have a tailgate party.  Bill Barton is bringing up one of his trailers so that we can watch some college football.  Fire pits will be blazing.  

Party time will be 12:00. So, bring your favorite adult beverage, cigars and a side dish (Post what side you will  bring) and hangout for a fun afternoon. 

Watch for routes later this week. 

Your race directors and party planners, 

Mike, Sherry, Dave, Janice, Lindsay, Bill 

Red Boiling Springs 2020

 I am sorry to announce that the RBS ride and weekend in Red Boiling Springs has been cancelled for 2020. We will have something planned from "The Farm" to celebrate Sherry's birthday, stay tuned, who knows we may pull a rabbit out of the hat and make it a weekend event yet. 

Thank you for you patience as this has been a very trying year for us all, I am sadden that this Fogbee tradition has to be postponed on my watch, but as stated above maybe we can still make a memorial weekend.

The "I am really old Dave Miley Ride" from The Farm in White House, TN Saturday, 8/22/20

RIDING AT 8:00.  MAY GET A LITTLE WET, BUT STILL RIDING.
He may not look it...
He may not want to admit it...
He probably can't believe it...
But he is going to have come to terms with it.  Dave is turning 60 on the 29th.  Come ride from The Farm this Saturday, 8/22 at 7:30 and provide some support to Dave as he comes to grip with old age.
We will grill brats and burgers.  So, bring your favorite adult beverage, a side dish and a chair and hang out with Dave as he comes to terms with reality.  Kelly could probably use some advice from some of his older friends on what she can look forward to in his twilight years.
The Farm is at 923 Tyree Springs Rd., White House, TN 37188. Also known as Janice's place.
See you on the road,
Mike and Sherry

Pedal for Paws 2020 Cancelled

The FOGBEES have proudly supported the Pedal for Paws Bicycle tour for the 10 years of it's existence.  This highly regarded ride benefits Sumner Spay and Neuter Alliance, which is has helped  greatly reduce the number of homeless dogs and cats in Sumner County.
The 2020 ride was originally scheduled for May 2. Due to the restrictions placed due to Covid-19, the ride was postponed to August 29.  The organizing committee, which includes several FOGBEES, planned diligently to have a ride that would be safe for riders and volunteers and still be fun. The conclusion has been reached that we cannot achieve these objectives.  Sadly, the 2020 ride is raising the white flag to Covid-19. 
With much hope 2021 will be much better, May 1, 2021 has been set for Pedal for Paws 2021.

Biking in the Coronavirus Era

Why riding a bike is a good idea in the Coronavirus Era

In the short, medium, and long term, it makes good sense to ride a bike. While social distancing is being recommended to help contain the spread of Covid-19, bike riding provides us with multiple benefits. https://www.ride-healthy.com/

I've put the lights back up

Hey Fogbee friends, 
"Doc" Boone Shine Family Christmas lights has put the (covid-19) lights back up with a few songs to help brighten the mood.  If you have cabin fever and need something to do feel free to swing by the house.  Show runs from 7:30pm to 9:30pm daily.  Maybe longer on the weekends.
