President Ryan Feagan enterains the crowd with geek data from last year's cycling events and the survey sent out to Nebraska racers.
Six Velo Veloce riders met for the beginning of the year Nebraska Cycling Association's kick-off meeting. Gene, Andy, Ted, Randy, Rusty and El Guapo journeyed to Whole Foods in Omaha for this well-attended event. Dandy pizza was available to enjoy during the presentation by Prez Ryan. Many topics were discussed, MTB and road racing, race sizes, age categories, rider-of-the-year calculations, etc. Plus we elected new officers for the upcoming year.
Going from memory here, but Ryan was reelected President, John Spay from Norfolk was VP, Cheryl Gerkins Officials Coordinator, Craig Harding Treasurer, John Lefler Secretary and Kevin Burke Upgrade Coordinator. Good crew! If the crowd size was a good indicator, interest is growing in Nebraska racing.
The next evening, Gene, Andy and El Guapo went to the Waiting Room and snarfed pizza (again) and watched the Greatest Story Ever Told with about 50 other cyclists. This movie was about Eddie Merckx in the 74 Giro de Italia, winning for his 5 consecutive title.
Hope to organize a team ride soon. Looks like some above 30F temps are just around the corner. I'm ready!
