The ride was fine,  There were about 250 people having a great time.  There 
was a fair number of vintage bikers although no other Riv's showed up.  Tom 
Palmer was planning to be there, but he got injured and had to bail.  It 
was still a good time, I spend the weekend 
at
 
the campgrounds in Yankee Springs, do the Fondo on Saturday and spend time 
on the MTB trails on Sunday.  I'll do it again next year.

We have a few days left to register for the Fall Fondo.  Tom and I will be 
at the Deep Lake Campgrounds with room for 4 more.  Anybody can meet up 
with us at the Hastings Courthouse lawn between 9 and 10AM Saturday.  It 
looks like it's going to be a cool autumn day in a colorful forest.  Hope 
to see you there.

I've heard a few "interested" but seen no commitments.   Last year, we only 
had two firm commitments, we ended up with 5.  I have reserved campsite 63 
at the Deep Lake Campground in Yankee Springs (1/2 the modern trailer park 
was closed and the other half reserved).  Don't worry about last minute 
decisions, I can have up to 6 people in the campsite.  We can all try to 
touch base this week and plan to meet up in Hastings with those not 
spending the night.  Next weekend is the event, online registration 
is open until Thursday and there is no 
registration on the day of the ride.  There will probably be a reasonable 
number of vintage bikers  there as well.

Kind of late notice but if any Mi list members would like to have my entry to 
the Fargo s48o this weekend contact me off list. fargosub48.com  All it will 
cost you is the $5 transfer fee. Medical issues at home are preventing me from 
riding. 
Transfer has to happen before 5 today.

Sure , the 38mm should be fine.  A friend did the course last year with 
32mm on a 1962 Frejus track bike, of course he can't see sane in his rear 
view.

I'm going to correct myself.  I was thinking of something else when I said 
I was doing the 62 mile ride.  Here is the route we used last year and had 
a good time.   It's 36 
miles but there is a recommeded detour around the Sager road portion (it's 
sand).This thread needed a little bump anyway.

October 8 is the date of the Fall Fondo.  It's a charity ride in Hastings, 
Mi using the same gravel route as the Barry Roubaix spring time race.  It's 
a pretty laid back affair.  I am planning to get a campsite at nearby 
Yankee Springs for anybody traveling to make a weekend of it.  There is 
also a good single track course nearby to play on with some free time on 
Friday or Sunday.
