Bike Month has been awesome this year! We’ve joined forces with Ride for Reading and delivered books on bikes, we 
helped kids to get to school on bikes for Ride to School Day, we fixed bikes for kids to ride to school in our new Re-Cycle Tullahoma project, we rode with millions of cyclists around the world in the Ride of Silence, and we promoted Ride to Work Week. We have one more unique event you will not want to miss…the 2014 Retro Ride, Saturday, May 24, 8 am, Celtic Cup Coffee House, 106 N. Anderson, Tullahoma, TN
So, clean the cobwebs off that vintage bike you have in the corner of your garage or just ride the bike you like to ride now, and join the Highland Rim Bicycle Club as we take a nice social tour to Woods Reservoir beginning and ending at The Celtic Cup. Even get your “joe” before the ride as well as your lunch afterward at a 22% discount for all participants. The ride will be 22 miles long, a very social pace of 9-12 mph average.
Thanks to Chris Calatrello for organizing this event.
The Retro-ride was a lot of fun and pretty challenging. Our new bikes really do make a difference in performance but it was fun revisiting the “good old days.” We did have a great group and the Celtic Cup went above and beyond. They really are amazing.
And, ha, yeah, we will or at least I will not be taking advocacy to that level. I do get their point though, but I’m not brave or crazy enough to ride wearing just a smile:/
Retro ride sounds like a neat idea, but these folks in Portland are really out there with their themed ride…really hangin’ it out for bicycling advocacy:
