Cap't Bob and PBC in Door County Wisconsin.

We rode from Sister Bay to Gills Rock. Boarded the passenger ferry and rode it to Washington Island.

We had a wonderful time riding our bikes on the island.

It is a great bike friendly place.

Almost 40 miles for the day.

The a little relaxation and dinner.

I would recommend anyone cycling Door County. A great and beautiful place to ride.

Capt Bob and PBC joined some other HBA members in the annual Holiday Parade in downtown Cedar Rapids on Dec 4, 2010.

If we look cold, it is because we were!

It was fun to be a part of the parade, and lots of little kids, were enjoying all the Christmas lights on the bikes, and of course we had ourselves and the bikes decorated with lights. Hokey Spokes are AWESOME!!

New City Bike

Loosebits is on a Mission

noreply@blogger.com (Tina) — Mon, 05 Jul 2010 17:00:00 +0000

Gingerclip: Good ride, Loosebits. Time to rehydrate and head home.

Loosebits: We got some good riding in this weekend. I bet I've passed Penutty by now.

Gingerclip: uh.... Last time I checked she was 85 miles ahead of you, and we only rode 10 this morning.

Loosebits: <sprinting back to his bike> You can take the car home, Gingerclip, but I'm gonna ride. Ride, ride, ride! Gotta catch Penutty. Look how fast I am. I bet I'm faster than Penutty.

So thanks to Penutty, Loosebits rode his first 20+ ride today: 21.1 miles. Way to go, Loosebits!!

White Rock Trail

noreply@blogger.com (Tina) — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 15:38:00 +0000

Team Potter Dallas explored the White Rock Trail early Sunday morning. We set a new distance record for LooseBits of 15 miles! (LooseBits wants it known that he has not fallen over yet with his new clips. Is it wrong that I hope I am there with my camera when he finally does?)

Clips for LooseBits

noreply@blogger.com (Tina) — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 00:51:00 +0000

Team Potter Dallas took a short ride on the city streets today. Riding in the neighborhood with lots of stop signs is perfect for LooseBits who is getting used to his new clips!! I think he is officially a "real" cyclist now. Yay!!

Mothers Day "Beginners Ride"

noreply@blogger.com (PBC) — Fri, 14 May 2010 20:40:00 +0000

We had a wonderful Mothers Day bike ride last Sunday on the Tandem. Art and Suki joined us. We did the Toddville loop and it was not without adventure. Art quickly named it the " Beginners Ride" This is Art not looking like a beginner.

Bike to Work Week

noreply@blogger.com (PBC) — Fri, 14 May 2010 17:22:00 +0000

Next Week is bike to work week. Next Friday is bike to work day. I know many live to far away from their work to commute. If you live 5 miles or less from your workplace. Then get out there and ride.

Early Spring Riding

Getting some early spring outdoor riding and miles. The wind must slow down. It has been windy for several days, and makes it less enjoyable.

Tour de France for the Rest of Us

noreply@blogger.com (Stacy) — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 17:38:00 +0000

Here is a fun video for you today. Team Potter member, Gingerclip discovered this on the interwebs today and shared it with me.

In France, Remi Guillard decided to bring his friends along and stage a Tour de France style stage finish and prank unsuspecting Sunday riders. He's got a team car, motorcade, photographers, crazy fans, and streakers. Everything to make you feel like you've just rode to a stage victory. I'm sure I would be scared by this if I came upon it, but I think Team Potter needs this kind of warm welcome on a Sunday ride, don't you think?
