Thanks to everyone for making my first group ride a great success and a lot of fun. Special thanks to Melinda and Jessica for babysitting me on my first real 'road' ride!
What a fun and welcoming group! I'll definitely be back!

Just finished our 9th Horsey. Loved it. Some input.

The Good:

1. Very friendly people all around.
2. BCC is always improving the ride. Keep it up.
3. Both Fri and Sat parites and bands were great.
4. BBQ Sat lunch was fantastic!
5. Lunch Sunday a great way to end the rides.
6. Cop at the difficult crossing on Sat was really appreciated.
7. We liked the mass start.
8. Routes changed due to flooding, but we liked the change so we could see new stuff.
9. Thanks for removing the rest stop with the killer hill.
10. Rest stop food waqs great and plentiful.

The Not So Good:

1. Need more drink stations at Sun lunch.
2. Rest stops should never be more than 15 miles apart, especially on hot days (last 2 Siundays).

We'll be back for our 10th next year. Thank you for another great weekend.

This is our first Horsey Hundred and have signed up to stay in the dorms but the registration is only for Friday and Saturday nights. What about Sunday night? Do we have to leave town or find our own lodging for Sunday night?

GREAT RIDES!

I live in Tucson, I put this video together with Pics of MT Lemmon which you can climb by bike, there is even a bike lane. In Fact, the city is riddled with bike lanes. There is nowhere in this city that you can't get to safely on a bike. They are comitted. Maps are avaialble at bikeandped at Pima county government.

MT Lemmon is a Great climb, worth the trip to Tucson

HELP! We just registered on line for the Horsey 100 and ordered jersey's as well, but I didn't see a spot to indicate men's or women's cut. How can I insure that we have ordered shirts that will fit?
