Memorial Day Ride

As we remember the men and women who have served our country we took advantage of the day off of work to get in a good ride. It was the best cycling weather of the year

Dude, we're gettin' the band back together!

The Cranks are still cranking in Coppell

Don't be left behind. Let's get the band back together.

Please Attend These Meetings

Jim Harris and his band of ruffians have been doing a lot of good for cyclists in Coppell and they need our help in the form of a show of support at some of the meetings. I hope that you guys can carve out a little time from your schedule to help him out.

First one is the Parks and Rec meeting, this Monday 2/1 at 6:30 at City Hall, 2nd fl. conference room

Let's really try to help a fellow Crank out.

A Crank was Interviewed

On the Coppell Cranks blog, we would like to hear good news headlines from our members so we can share them. Things like "Hey, last year Wade and his wife had a baby." Wade never sent me photos to post on the blog, but that is the sort of thing we want to post here throughout the year.

So, I will get the ball moving with this post.

I was recently interviewed by another of our fellow cyclists, Henry Lopez. You may know Henry from the Bicycles Plus Tuesday and Thursday rides. Henry's company consults small businesses/entrepreneurs and he asked me if I would be a guest on his podcast. The interview turned out really well and I used it as an episode of my own company's podcast.

2015 Turkey Roll Bicycle Rally

There’s been good participation from the Cranks in years past from Dave, Joe Culatta and others; the last two years were rainy and cold so I figure we’re due for a nice day.  Date is 11/21/15, the Saturday before Thanksgiving.  A link to the signup is below.  It’s a fun ride with great support and VERY casual.   Lots of ride options available.

Jim Harris set up a team for the Coppell Cranks, which gets everyone a $5 discount.   Jim will be riding the 39 mile option, but depending on conditions, he may add or subtract.  The Metric Century usually has a barbecue at about halfway.

 

Let’s see if we can get a head count and make a day of it!
