Chucky's Postponed

I ran into Mother Nature the other day and maybe I made a mistake, she asked me if her outfit made her look fat.  I gave the correct answer which was "No" but I probably shouldn't have looked her up and down with a puzzled look before I answered.

With the current weather conditions and the possibilities for tomorrow we are going to go ahead and postpone the Chucky's ride for tomorrow.  There are a few areas that we are concerned about riders safety if we get any ice that is forecasted, there are some areas that will not receive attention prior to the ride and its not worth riders potentially getting hurt.  There is an adventurer in all of us but we don't want to risk injuries in this circumstance.  We are looking at possibly next weekend or the one after, stay tuned for further details.

We appreciate your eagerness for this ride and hope that you understand where we are coming from.

Use Caution

Just a reminder that while out riding to use caution on the roadways, and keep an eye out for traffic.  Also make sure you are familiar with road signs, below are a few to keep you sharp.

 
 
Hopefully we can have fun without horsing around.

 
I am thankful for such great information.


 
Enough said.
 
Things are shaping up nicely for Chucky's Challenge, this Saturday Feb 1, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. in historic downtown Jamesport, MO.  Again there is a small grocery store near the start area for any last minute needs or post ride needs, also several Amish bakeries in the area to refuel after the ride.

SAG

Remember when we were kids and life was easy, really no cares in the world?  A day when we played outside until after dark, rode our bikes in the streets, had rock fights, climbed trees, all sorts of fun stuff. Did you ever spend the weekend with your grandparents and get spoiled rotten?  Sure you had boundaries but maybe got away with a little more?  And then after a full day of playing, you went running into the bathroom only to catch one of your Grandparents getting out of the shower....YIKES!!!
What's my point?  My point is that sometimes we need SUPPORT!  Whether you need support from "sagging" or support from "SAG" it happens, we can help with one of these (and it won't be for "sagging").  We will have a SAG vehicle that plans to be at the 25 mile point and also the 41 miles point, if you would like to put a bag of items in this vehicle at the start then please plan to do so.  Now the distance between the two stops isn't too terribly far apart depending on faster riders speeds and slower riders speeds so please prepare as best as you can.

Again the 2014 edition of Chucky's Challenge is this Saturday Feb 1, we will be leaving from the 4 way stop in downtown Jamesport at 10:00.

2014 Chucky's Route

Alright Folks the route is set, we are less than a week away and ready for some good times on gravel.  I can't guarantee there will not be a dog on this ride, just in case I would not recommend bacon as an on the bike fuel.  If you must then I would stick it in your buddies jersey pocket without him knowing it!

We will head South out of Jamesport on rolling hills passing through prime Amish farmsteads.  Will hit river flats at about mile 10 and will be in the flats for approx. 15 miles.  Plenty of time to get the legs warmed up before the punchy climbs of the last half of the "Challenge". 

We will have a SAG vehicle at mile 25 and then he will proceed onto mile 41, more to follow about this later.

We will have cue sheets for riders, if you plan on attending why don't you post a comment below so we have an estimate of how many sheets to plan on.  Check this site prior to departure, we plan to play on Saturday but sometimes Mother Nature is overly cruel so check back for updates.

There is a small grocery store near the 4 way stop in case you forgot anything or need anything afterwards.

SATURDAY FEB 1, 2014 AT 10:00 A.M. IN HISTORIC DOWNTOWN JAMESPORT, MO.

Gusty Or Not

With all the wind that we have been getting the past couple of days, let's hope this Chick doesn't show up!  But we won't turn her away, 10:00 a.m. on Saturday Feb 1, 2014 at the 4 way stop in historic Jamesport, MO.

With a handful of Amish bakeries in town, can you think of a reason you shouldn't come and ride?

2014 Chucky's

Wow, have I let time get away from me big time.  Chucky's is fast approaching, it is Saturday Feb 1, 2014.  It's time for me to get myself out of my den and out on the bike, I hear there are hills on this ride.  Get a group together and plan to be in Jamesport on Saturday Feb 1 for a great time.

Stay tuned!
