Rick and I will announce 1st/2nd/3rd place winners soon for the alleycat, which continues until next Monday morning for those who bravely continue to slog along.
I’m sure the checkpoints are getting harder to find, but we still have the DFL prize. Good luck to the remaining racers!
Bicycle news
The vast communist bicycle conspiracy comes out of the closet.
Speaking of commies, many areas have holiday bicycle programs where donated bikes are distributed to underprivileged children. Volunteers repair, clean and deliver bikes. My pals in Longmont, CO, for example, reconditioned nearly 500 bicycles and delivered the bikes to families last Friday. And in Bakersfield, CA, a group of foster children lucked out when the cast and crew of “NCIS: Los Angeles” bought new bicycles for them. Via Bicla Romania.

Donations to unfortunate children were great! I want to praise the act. Ah, I might win the booby prize. I want much time to search checkpoints!
They’re distinctly different, which is why I mentioned them both. That’s my story and I’m sticking with it!
