Speedtrap Ride Tuesday May 18^th

          The Speedtrap Ride will once again roll out from Spoke Life Cycles in Elmore, Ohio, tomorrow, May 18^th, at 6:30 pm. The weather will be relatively favorable for riding with a temperature at ride time in the mid to low 70s, a 7 – 9 mph east wind, and practically no chance of rain.

          Scott Lang will once again lead the Ghost Pepper Riders over a 25-mile course. Expect his group to average 22+ mph. Are you up to the challenge?!

          Bob Kayden will lead the Cayenne Pepper Riders over the same course at a slight slower pace, 20 – 22 mph.

          Douglass Kilpatrick will lead the Habanero riders. Expect his group to average around 19 mph

          I expect to lead the Jalapeno Riders over a slightly shorter 22-mile route at 15 – 17 mph. However, because of health issues, I MAY need someone to volunteer to do this for one more week.

          Todd Pollock will lead the Sweet Pepper Riders on a course and at a speed agreeable to the group.

         The Speedtrap Ride is an excellent ride to meet some great people, as it is a joint venture of TAB and the Flatlanders. Why not come out and enjoy something different. Sign-in begins at 6:00. I hope to see you then!
