Fellow GCCers,

The Spring Bee Chainring Challenge was a load of fun today! We had 21 riders participate in three groups--the LoBees, Tween Bees and Bee-17s. Between dropped water bottles, loose dogs, a flat tire, vicious headwinds on the return home and the constant threat of thunderstorms, this ride had it all!

A special thanks to everyone who turned out for the Inaugural Spring Bee. Thanks for being adventurous enough to come along for the ride! I also want to thank Bob Newman and Ed Gardner for leading the LoBees and Bee-17s. It was really great to see everyone chatting at the rest stop with riders from other "Bee" groups! Let's face it--Bees ROCK!!!

I hope to see a few more of you at the next Chainring Challenge!
