UAR http://www.urbanassaultride.com
Cottonwood 200 http://www.cottonwood200.org/
SingleSpeed Worlds http://www.sswc10nz.com/ although it would be tough to race officially... this years entrance qualifier is a coloring contest

I got to ask, how in the fawk is riding bikes and having to push yourself along a "vacation" that sounds like work to me.

Now, you make it a run in cars/trucks, say up 1 as far as it can go over 2-3 days, find a cool cabin to rent up in OR someplace, do some shooting, some fishing, and some beer drinking you got a deal.

Hell make it early deer season, and get tags for the area and your hunters licenses, and I will be glad to teach 2-3 of you how to track deer, how to hunt, how to skin a buck and dress them out, and lug them back in, how to butcher the meat up, and how to cook good food.

I think we've already had this conversation about bikes.

I would LOVE to go hunting (never been), but these guys would definitely not.

We should get an i-club hunting meet on! Now, bow or rifle?

I would have a blast, but I'm not sure how much everyone else would enjoy it.

Bow hunting while rolling on your bike. Nothing more manly than that. Summer Biathlon training FTW.

Rifle, Bow tags are much harder to get in CA, and, I am **** with a bow.

But seriously I grew up with a dad who taught me about everything there is to know about tracking and hunting whitetail deer. Love to pass that knowledge on since I wont ever have kids.

I helped my uncle gut and skin a deer that he hit with his truck in Maine. It would have been better had I not been hung over and wanting to vomit everywhere.
