These are the riders who generally leave from the Kick's gas station/convenience store (I think it is now called the Circle K), and include some of the area's best competitive cyclists.

Many of their riders are Gyro graduates (Andy, Hardy, Brian, Michael, Tim G., Steve, etc.); some even consider themselves Gyros. ---- slow down <[email protected]> wrote: > What are "the HG boys"? > > On Jun 19, 5:50 pm, <[email protected]> wrote: > > I just hope that we all don't take Tony for granted.
