MS 150 "Pedal to the Point"
Anyone else here riding in the MS150 "Pedal to the Point" (Elyria, Ohio to Sandusky & back) this weekend? If so, give me a shout. I'll be riding with the FedEx team.

I heard about it at my LBS, but I don't think I'll do it, I haven't even done a century yet. Maybe next year?

I am riding again with my son. I'll be easy to find riding a teal vision recumbent. My son is riding a Schwinn Letour luxe gray with blue bar tape.

It was a good ride, despite some nasty weather and road conditions.

There were three FG riders.
One on a new shop bike with two brakes, One on a mid 80's Raleigh conversion no brakes, and one on a 70's conversion (Concord I think) one brake.
The guy riding brakeless was very cool, ex bike mechanic from the west side, pushing a pretty big gear. He rode with us for about 20 miles each way.
