Cino ‘19
The announcement you’ve been waiting for: Cino is back and it’s going the full Monty!
I have agreed to take over management of the event (with the creator’s blessing and guidance) and I can assure you we are on.
When? September 6-8 (I’m adding a Friday night social event).
Where? Kila, MT to Hot Springs, then back the next day (we may seem like the middle of nowhere, but that’s actually Glasgow).
Other details? Tickets go on sale March 26 @ 7:00 PM. Here’s the Eventbrite registration webpage: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/cino-he...=eventurl_text
WTF is Cino? In a nutshell, it is an honoring of times gone by, when steel was king and roads were awful. Steel is still real and our roads haven’t gotten any better. But the comeraderie and spirit of the attendant enthusiasts cannot be greater! Check our webpage for history, pictures, and apparently my phone and email still up for the whole world to see...
This is a bit of what it looks like:


The door to mountain nirvana is open to you!

Be one of the few, the proud, the suffering, and slightly off balanced... Be Cino.

I won't even be able to think about attending until after I retire in April 2023, so keep this tradition alive at least for another four+ years, PLEASE! I really, really, really want to own one of those wool jerseys!

In case you aren’t familiar with Cino, here are some photo albums of mine to whet your appetite.
Seriously, it is like no other ride you've ever been on. It's worth the trouble to get here.

Very cool! Thanks for keeping it alive. One of the toughest, fun and most satisfying vintage rides I've ever done.

Yes, thanks Dave.

It’s really the people who make the ride so special, and I need more than two hands to count all the cool BF people I’ve met in person.

Yeah, we can go as the Merckxsey Twins! Though I doubt either one of us would be comfortable riding 80 miles (or whatever it is) in gravel on tires that'll fit on those bikes.

This would be an interesting Twofer: Cino this weekend, and the Coppi event in Wisconsin the next weekend.
Different bikes required, different airlines, lots of sweaty wool clothing, cool people, neato bikes to ogle....

Fantastic! The year Cino disappeared I had already rearranged the entire family vacation schedule around the ride and was sorely disappointed when it didn't come off. We made other plans and still had a great summer, but there remained that ache for something I felt was special and was missing. I am going to do my utmost to try to get to Cino 2019 (and I definitely need one of those jerseys!). Good on you mountaindave for picking up and carrying the torch!

Did that drive last year the first weekend of March after multiple snow storms closed the high line. And left in a snow storm - fun times. I thought mountain snow storms were bad, but they’re nothing like the plains!

I'm going to be sorely tempted to do this. What's the altitude on this ride? Just checked, looks to be around 3,000 ft for the beginning and end of the right which isn't bad for someone coming out of the flat lands of the midwest.

Correct, it starts at just under 3000’. My GPS tells me 2,800’ of cumulative climbing each way, most of it gravel.
