The seventh annual B@TM is on! Start from the bike parking facility in the Cherry St ramp, downtown Green Bay at 10:38 pm. This will be a 15 mile, parade pace tour of titletown. There "might" be one rest stop along the way, but this will be decided by the group. Prizes will be awarded for most illumination. (white headlight and red reflector minimum) Also, some other prizes for various contest before & during ride. Please make sure your ride is "solid", as making repairs in the dark are challenging.

Bike @ the Moon

WEIRD is thinking of hosting this years Bike @ the Moon. A evening bike ride (10:38 pm start) of about 15 miles, two hours. This will be a nice change of pace from all the racing everyone's been doing. Dates are either friday august 24th or saturday august 25th. Ring in if you're interested or have a question. Otherwise, its your duty to be there. Totally a WEIRD event

how to train for a 24 hr mtb

Ride a bunch. Simple. But seriously, as this will be my first time ever doing an event as a member of a team, there has to be a different strategy. As riders will take just over an hour to do a lap, I have been training 2 to 5 times a day, short and sweet workouts. Most workouts are under 3 hours, with a lot in the 60-90 minutes. Also riding when tired seems to be paying off. Does anyone have an opinion on this one?

Still out there, where have you been

I haven't posted in a while, but WEIRD is going strong this season. Training for 24@9, 100 mile race @ Neilsville, and Fat Tire. Road cycling skill classes have seemed to be exclusively for fixies?? Can you ride your fixie well? Call 371-2227 for a training.

DORT open again

DORT, the downtown off road trail, which weird uses as a off road skill building trail, is once again open....if we get too much rain, it might close again, but 70% is open as of today....schedule a tour/training soon by calling 371-2227

ROADIE 101

A urban bicycle riding skill class is now open for enrollment. Most training should be done on the pave as we thaw out. You need to "drive your bike". Same roads, same rules, same rights! Period. It is the safest way to ride. I can prove it. Classes are scheduled around your schedule/training

DORT frozen & open

With the cold upon us AGAIN, DORT is frozen and 90% open..riding friday until 100 pm....Tours available

St pattys DAY alleycat

WEIRD is hosting the first RAT race of the season this saturday at 9am. Depart from Maloneys pub on Washington St downtown GB...We will be going about 30 miles, three hours, and exploring the alleys of brown county. This is a tour with stage races a various locations. Studded tires not needed as the melt has taken hold everywhere....should be good weather....Wear green, be green, ride your bike

conditons and activities

As of 3-8 most roads are in decent shape... minor side roads are still snow covered. I am amazed how beneficial studded tires have been for riding this year. They really allow you to ride in almost any weather. I think that new salt/brine mix they throw on the roads now is helping, but I wonder what the health risk is in breathing that shit?? Especially being passed by large trucks/buses who will not yield/slow for a cyclist or pedestrian. The worse the conditions are, the more you should take your lane....gonna downhill ski on sunday @ Marquette Mt....Saturday should be an epic ride...who's in?

good snow in GB

any snow sport is doable in GB now...gonna get a nice road ride in today, then another foot of snow is suppose to dump. Get a good weird workout in by calling 371-2227

Nice storm!

14 inches officially in Green Bay....got out BC skiing @ Bairds/Triangle 4 hours sunday....sweet...should be good shoe'in and BCski this week.....tuesday and wednesday nights...say 530ish??

DORT in the morning 2-24

Get the bikes...DORT is open and will be ridden all morning until the snow flies....call 371-2227 to ride with...studded tires NOT needed...nice frozen grass with 1% snowcover....My mtb is fixed, and I wont break it, so pace is gonna be relaxed with spurts.

week of Feb 19 - 25

Its time to dust that bike off and get it ready to go for the season (if you didn't already take care of this). With warmer temps this week, its time to start working on spinning and saddletime. If you're doing the Birkie, some easy biking will be good for your mental prep. Keep intensity low. both tuesday and wednesday evenings/late afternoons we will be doing some light workouts on the bike. Join in...Call 371-2227 to participate

happy birthday Pam

my wife is celebrating her Bday today. I was priviledged to accompany her start of her next challenge this morning. She is walking to San Luis Obisbo CA. We did 4 miles this morning. I am going to walk with her as much as I can. Check out her blog at http://walkingwithmarty.blogspot.com

And you thought only I was WEIRD

are you studded?

I have to say installing studded tires on a bike was the greatest thing I did this winter. It allows biking in the winter with a minimal wipeout factor. I had resisted using studded tires, telling myself my handling skill will get me through, and my balance would be heightened. (I also used to wipeout at least once a year, usually on "black ice" in a shaded turn or close to the curbs/cracks. All the fears are eliminated with studs! We have been riding on the bay of GB and the local smaller rivers. Conditions are awesome now after the deep freeze and minimal snow. WEIRD is going out this weekend to ride the ice. We will be waiting until mid day to take advantage of the warmth. Ride along.

coming out of the deep freeze

Wisconsin is coming off a week of below zero temps... this weekend looks good to be out there enjoying it....biking on the ice should be the best of conditions....snow around GB is old and hard....get in on a workout
