Columbus Day ABD cycling weekend

Hold the date for the last 2009 national holiday weekend with likely cycling weather!

As Mike Ebert posted in his note earlier this week, we are planning a 3-day, 2-night ABD event. The Clock Tower Inn and Resort in Rockford will be our home base on Saturday and Sunday, October 10 and 11. A block of rooms has been reserved at a great rate. AND for those who may need to convince non-cycling family or companions, the Clock Tower has an indoor water park - a very reasonable package deal is available for a room + 4 passes to the water park.

I am working through the paperwork from the hotel, and will get out specific rates, deadlines, etc. in a couple of days. Meanwhile ... save the date and talk it up!

Rides:
* Optional Saturday ride from one of the shops to Rockford
* Sunday rides in the rural Rockford/Beloit/southern Wisconsin area
* Optional Monday ride back to the west suburbs?

Party:
Morning continental breakfast and a cook-out will be provided by ABD with just a marginal add-on to the room fees.

Keep an eye out on the ABD email-list for a complete run-down and registration information!
