Friday Night.

Calling cyclists of all ages and skill levels! If you’ve ever wanted to join a group ride, but felt there were too many speed or spandex requirements, we’ve got you covered. Come join our casual, monthly night ride where we roll through the city, playing music along the way! Rides are typically @10 miles or so and we try to end someplace for drinks and socializing afterwards. We follow the rules of the road, as long as it’s safe to do so. Come have fun!

Expect two hundred (give or take) riders for this popular event.

Northern Native Americans call April’s full moon the pink moon after a species of early blooming wildflower. In other cultures, this moon is called the sprouting grass moon, the egg moon, and the fish moon.

Last night the United States had a chance to secure yet another Dos e Zero at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. It would pretty much secured our spot in the World Cup. America’s last minute addition to the squad, Jordan Pefok, took a perfect lay off from Govanni Reyna, three yards from the goal line. He missed his chance so badly that the ball didn’t cross the end line but rolled harmlessly to the sideline. Christian Pulisic’s goal line shot hit the sprawling Mexican keeper, squarely in the chest before ricocheting out of play. Both team needed a win badly, and the pace of the game showed how much each team wanted the three points. The settled, however for a point a each making Sundays games so much more important.

The US plays Panama Sunday in Orlando. I leave Saturday afternoon on a 3 PM flight out of Providence, R.I. to attend this crucial match for both teams. Again, a win would secure us a place in Qatar. There will be a massive gathering of The Midnight Riders, Sammers and The American Outlaws Saturday night in downtown Orlando and Motorworks Brewing.

With a Sunday evening game, a 10 PM flight home on Monday, I have plenty of time to bike with my amigo Hiram, who lives in the area. ( He also has a stable of bikes). This is going to be so cool.

The first day of the Easter season, and the countdown to Easter Sunday. Easter, is the celebration of new (the Lilly), and abundant life, (the bunny). It is celebrated on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the vernal equinox (the first day of spring). This method of determining the date of Easter often results in Easter being before Passover and/or displaced far from Passover. Easter can potentially be observed anywhere between March 22 and April 25.

A few weeks ago, one of my blog friends recommended a book that was recommended to him by another of my blog friends. I couldn’t find the post to give them props, but I did read the book. It has easily reached the top of my reads. So much so that upon completion, I ordered Towles previous book. “A Gentleman in Moscow”. I’m looking forward to that one.
