The ass-kickin’ Soil Saloon posse organized a fine race today to help the ongoing fundraising campaign to help Chuey. He’ll be beginning his long legal battle next month and all of the money raised will assist with his future trial.
It’s certainly been an odd week in the dark netherworld of bike theftdom, and I have two stories to report with semi-happy endings. In the first one, the bike thieves were caught — but the bike is still MIA. In the second story, the bike was recovered but the thief is still at large.
There were a ton of cycling events happening this weekend — Levi’s Gran Fondo, CX races, Furnace Creek 508 just to name a few — but the place to be, in my humble opinion, was the Winters 200k.
Another fine event organized by Brian and Jeremiah featuring photography, video and bikes by local builders!
‘Twas a soggy good time for the final race of the series; could be a sign that this season will be good and muddy!
