Before I tell you about the Wheelie, here is a reminder about the upcoming County Commission Candidate Forum, co-hosted by Georgia Conservancy and Savannah Bicycle Campaign tomorrow night (Tuesday 10/14) at 7:30pm at the Coastal Georgia Center on Fahm Street. There was a nice writeup in today’s Savannah Morning News, so I hope you have it on our calendar.
Also for your calendar coming up this weekend:
What do bike racers do when fall comes? Apparently, cyclocross—a weird mashup of road and mountain biking, running and jumping over obstacles while carrying a bike. So, grab your friends, your family and your bikes, and come out to watch the Savannah Wheelmen’s Cyclocross Race at Oglethorpe Speedway (off Dean Forest Road in Pooler) before our free casual ride at 3:30 p.m. around the speedway and adjacent Tom Triplett Park. The cyclocross races run from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Make a day of it—watch the races, enjoy the belgian waffle stand, and try a little xtracycle surfing. We’ll have some giveaways at the start and finish of our ride. As always, all are welcome and bring the kids!
