Today I received the call I have been sweating over for weeks. Rick Miller, bike mechanic extraordinaire, is putting together a van/bus transit for those who want to ride only the first day of CFC and then be driven back to Columbus on Saturday evening. Already committed to the return van trip are Marty, Dave C and others but it is an invitation only event. So, today, Rick called me and asked if I wanted to join the fun. Now, was I the first he called....most definitely not. Was I the last he called....why yes, probably I was. However, there are still a couple of seats available and to express my gratitude, I told Rick I would promote the opportunity to the thousands of loyal blog readers.
For a measly $40, the van will be available at the first rest stop so you can partially disrobe if you want. Next, it will be available at the lunch stop. Then, after you arrive in Marietta, it will be there to take you and your bike back to Columbus. Of course, there will be a quick meal stop either in Marietta or somewhere close during the return. For more details, contact Rick at rick@ricksbicycleservice.com, To be honest, this is open to anyone so don't let my comment about the exclusivity of the service throw you. If you can make it to Marietta then Rick's van will be there for you. ALSO----SPECIAL ALERT: Jon Sada has challenged Rick to race the CFC route. Not sure what the winner or loser will receive but it adds some spice to the event.

All you so called A-rider pussies need to man-up and ride the full CFC with all the pleasure and pain that comes with it!

Some of us work for a living and not only have a commitment to riding, but more so to our families, so it is difficult to be selfish and take away a whole weekend from 3 young kids and my beautiful wife... but you can call me a candy ass or a cat what ever you prefer.. so enjoy your 2 day tour and not your family.

You tell them Rick. Don't know how all those people can abandon their children, wife, grandparents, dogs, cats, hampsters, lawn mowing, leaf raking.......well, actually it is beginning to make sense to me why they can do it.
