Come join us! Grumpy/Little Guy Racing is hosting the second annual Grumpy/Roubaix bike ride!

Meet at Grumpys Northeast (http://grumpys-bar.com/). Depart at 1pm, ride the best cobbled roads in the twin cities area, Climb the infamous "cobbled climb". Arrive at Grumpys Downtown at 3pm-ish to watch the Versus coverage of the 106th edition of Paris-Roubaix.

15-18mph. Not a hammerfest. The Grumpys/LGR team members will be on hand to guide participants to ensure no one is lost or left behind. Just under 30 miles for the route.

Road or cross bikes recommended. Race wheels NOT recommended.

Come out. It'll be fun. I promise.

(Crap. and I go and typo "roubaix" on the title, and can't fix it. I hope the ride today goes better than the internets in the AM)

Seconded. I'll be racing elsewhere. Not that I enjoy cobbles.
