Thank you ALL who participated in our Weekend Bent Family Reunion!!! 40 of you joined us for the pot luck dinner, The Saturday Happy Hour and evening dinner.
About 65 (probably more but it was hard to count) of you came to ride Saturday morning. A small group of riders did a short ride on Friday (before our Welcome Wagon Event). Lots of folks magically came to the same spot for lunch (on Saturday) where I must say I had one of the best burgers EVER and .... I hear the food at our restaurant of choice was pretty darn good.
On Sunday, some of you got up really early to ride w/ Regis or explore the North side of the Trail. Others, explored the North Side of the trail as scheduled (8:30 AM) and others chose to sleep a little longer and hit the trails when the temperatures were a bit warmer (a smart move).
As Willie mentioned to me, the weather was not PERFECT but according to his Weather Meter, it was about 99.99999999999 per cent PERFECT. Can we ask for more? I suppose we can but it won't happen in spite of our weather control powers.
Everyone who came was really friendly and I must thank you all again. I certainly hope you all had as much fun as I did. I would also like to extend a special thanks to Willie for all his help and of course, I should also thank our sponsors for their generous donations (Atlantic Bicycles, Cycling Solutions, Hamton's Edge Bicycle and Trike Shoppe)
Once again, THANK YOU. ALL. We have already started to make plans for a different kind of TREAT (and yes, you may run over Willie with your personal bent or thank him for the idea). We're thinking about about a Three Bent Trail Quest. The idea is to hit a different trail, on three consecutive days (long weekend) and we're working on a date and logistics. Stay tuned.....
Due to a set of unforeseen circumstances, there will not be a Trike Demo Saturday Afternoon. However, we will still have a Happy Hour by the POOL Saturday @ 4 PM compliments of Trike Shoppe LLC.
Trike Shoppe has made arrangements for free beer, soda and snacks so we'll see you by the Pool @ 4 PM on Saturday. Be sure to pick up your money saving certificates while you're at it.
4:00 PM –Happy Hour compliments of Trike Shoppe LLC *
The good folks from the Trike Shoppe will be serving FREE soft drinks, beer & snacks. They will also be distributing free store redeemable gift certificates*
* Five to twenty percent of all store and Internet sales are donated to charities that promote education and/or rehabilitation opportunities for persons with disabilities
As I mentioned previously, about 39 you have told me you plan to participate in tomorrow's Pot Luck Dinner by the Pool.
Here are the obligatory RULES:
1) NO GLASS by the pool.
2) You MAY bring the CHAIR in front of your ROOM but you MUST return it to its original location.
3) The organizers will appreciate if a few of you will help us CLEAN UP after our little "party". I told the management that we have a group of WELL BEHAVED CYCLISTS who are willing to make sure we don't MAKE a MESS. (Please dont make a "mentiroso" out of me)
4) Last but not LEAST, PLEASE, PLEASE, EAT and DRINK as much as your belly can hold so we don't have leftovers!!!
The Withlacooche Bent Invasion Weekend is FAST approaching. I know that many of us are counting each second that goes by. Please remember to come by the Central Motel's pool area THIS FRIDAY, at around 4:30 PM. A welcome wagon will be setup complete with some drinks and junk food, compliments of our sponsors: (http://www.atlanticbicycle.com/ , http://www.cyclingsolutions.com & http:www//hamptonsedge.com/ . You'll be able to pick up your schedule, ID tag and a few discount coupons from our sponsors.(When you ride with the Florida Bent Riders you get to ride for free, enjoy free snacks - which is quite important given the fact we're an eating club with a cycling disorder - and save lots mula on your next purchase of bent toys and accessories)
Following the Welcome Wagon, 39 of you have told us that you'll be participating in our Pot Luck Pool Party (5:30 PM - 8 PM) (Thank YOU WILLIE for helping us organize this party) If you have not received an invitation for this Pot Luck Dinner and/or told Willie what you're bringing, please be sure to email soflakettwiesel@...>,
We expect about 55 riders to join us the following day (Saturday)for the AM ride and evening dinner. Also, be sure to stick around Saturday afternoon and check out a few of the trikes offered by http://www.TrikeShoppe.com , our forth event sponsor The good folks from Trike Shoppe LLC will be there in the flesh to demo their bikes (GreenSpeed and many others) and just as importantly - if not more so - they plan to please/fill our bellies with drinks/beer and snacks!
On Sunday we have a couple of alternate rides, a trail ride for slower riders (like me) and a FAST ride, compliments of Regis of Hamptonsedge.com fame!!!
For more details, PICK UP the RIDE schedule Friday at 4:30 PM (@ the Welcome Wagon) or Saturday at around 8:40 AM (just before the ride & traditional photo op session.)
So.... start packing..... start getting your bent contraptions ready for this weekend!
Your mission MUST be completed and failure is NOT an OPTION: Your mission is simply to BE THERE!!!!
See you in a couple of days
============
By the way, if you happen to get to the hotel early THIS FRIDAYT (say, just before 2 PM), LOOK for Willie as a group of early arrivals plan to do a little PRE-Welcome Wagon Ride on the Trail!!!
So far 27 of you have responded to Willie's invitation to the PotLuck Pool Side Dinner scheduled for Friday, November 13, 07 and we have 28 pending invitations.

If you haven't "signed up" already, well... do so...call the Central Motel in Inverness ( 1-800- 554-7241) and make a reservation (ask for the Florida Recumbent Rider's group rate) what are you waiting for? We'd love to see you there!!!

Friday November 13th @ 4:30 PM - Please check in and come to our WELCOME WAGON. Drinks and snacks will be served compliments of Atlantic Bicycle and CyclingSolutions.com. Pick up the FULL WEEKEND SCHEDULE at the Welcome Wago (by the POOL) and look for discount coupons inside your packet!!!

This is a NEAT chance to chat with your recumbent buddies and have a nice relaxing time by the pool. We've done a number of very successful Pot-Luck Dinner Parties and as you know, they're hard to organize and manage. Mr. Will Byers (Willie) has come up with an efficient way to help us ensure that we don't end up with sixty apple pies,
Willie will be sending an invitation to everyone who has made plans to be there. Please read Willie's invitation and follow the instructions. You will be able to tell us if you're interested in the Pot Luck Party and see what others are bringing so you can bring something different from everyone else. PLEASE LOOK FOR WILLIE's INVITATION. If you do NOT receive an email from Willie, it means that we need a correct email address. YES, you're invited, but we just don't know for sure what your e- mail address is!!! So, if you don't get an invitation, let Willie know via an email to : soflakettwiesel@...
Apparently 17 rooms have already been booked and the manager is going to block additional rooms for us as needed.
If you must know, then I must tell you that a bunch of "little" but important details are in the process of being worked out. I can't give you details or else I would need to permanently slience you. Suffice it to say, the Withlacooche weekend will either mitigate, cure or worsen YOUR eating/drinking disorder * while at the same time satisfy your need to fondle admire and strike a personal, up-close conversation/relationship with that one bent of your dreams ....
* Note: We understand that we're an eating/drinking group with a cycling disorder!!! We EAT and DRINK rain or shine!!!

Hi Susan,
I'm glad you'll be there. Don't worry about distance and/or intensity. Many of
us (me included) are there to have a good time and could not care less about
riding a certain distance or maintaining a certain speed!!!
Maybe Ivan can talk his boss into giving him the day off by switching with
someone or something. Maybe Ivan can do what I once did - I FIRED MY BOSS!!!
(Yep... I did... but I do NOT really recommend this unless you're ..... (fill in
the blanks)
See you in November!!!
Jose
Others,
PLEASE send me a quick email if you reserved a room and/or plan to join us!!! An
approximate head count will help us fine tune this event
(send and email to Jose@...)
Thanks!!!!

I reserved my room just this morning. I had an attack of indecision when I realized that Ivan won't be able to go with me. He works on Saturdays and doesn't have any more vacation days this year. Everybody else must've jumped on the phone really fast, though--all the downstairs rooms were already taken.
The other thought that held me back is that I am building ride time and intensity really slowly so as not to stress my back and hip, and so probably won't be able to keep up on speed and distance. But I will have fun regardless!
Thanks for putting this plan together!

It’s a little farther south
than Gainesville but look at http://store.valueweb.com/servlet/poweron/StoreFront
and talk to Mark Powers, it’s just south of plant City on Hwy 60. He sells the Bacchettas,
Rans and others types New and used. Great place to do business.

[NorthFloridaRecumbentRiders] New to the group...Looking for a highracer
Just stumbled on the group and thought I'd join. I
currently ride a
Rans Rocket but am looking to move up to something a little faster and
lighter and with larger than 20" wheels. Does anyone know if anyone in
the Jax or Gainesville
area stocks a good selection of recumbents. I
havent found anyone yet. Im looking for a Bacchetta Corsa or Strada, a
Rans F5, or maybe a Volae Sport or similar (New or used)....

Hey guys,
I'm rebuilding my site (www.cyclingsolutions.com) with a new host. As
the result, I'll be taking down Cycling Solutions after Sept 15th, 08
and my email (jose@...) won't work for a while. I will
check my AOL email AFTER my site goes down (bentwheeler@...). My
goal is to rethink and rebuild the online store by October 15 08!!!
Also, I will be creating a 15% Discount Coupon for all items on the
site that will be available ONLY to the three Florida Recumbenta Groups
and will be valid for 3 days and 3 days ONLY.
If you have ANY trouble getting a hold of me via email before Oct 15,
just call my cell phone (954-673-0072)
Thanks for your support and... see you on the bike trail....
Jose
