hey everyone,
in addition to working this sunday, the 17^th, some volunteers have decided to open the shop on wednesday evening, the 13^th, from 6-9pm. this is intended to be a more relaxed session for volunteers to come hang out, work on whatever they want including their own bikes, and enjoy each other's company. wednesday nights may become permanent but for right now we'll just decide week by week.

the long awaited trip to yanceyville is set for sept. 23 & 24. here are adrian's notes. sounds like we'll miss most of the hoedown but if you've been wanting visit gilbert and sue's new shop here's you chance.

75 miles, bring sleeping bags and therma-rests
i'll bring some tube tents

route tested last weekend. Cue & Maps
the last-chance ATM is in Durham, then there's a 24-mile stretch with no services, but little traffic.
sounds like there'll be plenty of food and beer available, though healthy vegan options may be a challenge.
it took me about 6-7 hours to cover the 74-miles, including lunch.

think y'all can make it?
