It's happening.

Shelter @ Illiniwek Forrest Preserve in Hampton IL

Bring your bike related items: parts, clothes, frames, complete bikes, to sell and swap with other cyclists.
I am sure there will be some riding before during and after the event, both along the riverfront path and off road on the Illiniwek Bluff trails.

Also available for purchase will be all of our clubs entire line of clothing! Socks, Hoodies, T-Shirts, Jerseys and more!

At our next monthly meeting we will take a vote if the Club should pay for some food like sandwiches or fried chicken.

What are you asking for the xt crank and external bottom bracket?

[ew_perry]

Anna & I will be there. I will try and find something to bring, but by the time I am ready to retire something I think most of the value has been ridden out of it!!
I can use some computer mounts for Cateye brand computers.

[Bexter]

I'll be there if it's dry enough to ride and will have devilled eggs in tow!

[speedjunkie]

I'll be there looking to unload the old bike and maybe pick up some new stuff.

[dru_b]

im thinking about taking my dirt jumper........ its a 07 or 08 DMR sidekick frame with a rock shox dirtjumper fork, single speed setup, primo pro bmx cranks. not sure what the rim hoops are but theyre sun laced to shimano saint centerlock hubs. looking for $400.

don't know if theres any other recyclable parts in the basement.

[LMARBACH]

I would love to come, but will be hitting the Decorah Time Trials (weather permitting).

[ew_perry]

I will have this bike there for sale. A friend of mine is asking $1,150 for it. The light in this photo does not do the color much justice. Bike probably has 300 miles on it and is in GREAT shape. It's a 2007 or 2008. Color is unique as it was a test bike for a shop. I think that is also why I am not sure of the year as the build not quite fit anything listed at bikepedia.

What time is this going down?

I plan to come and bring my Slingshot frame to sell ($250) and my Homegrown ($500). I also have a brand new helmet and some other crap. I know a girl looking to buy a bike for around $200. Prob M maybe L. Anyone have anything like that?

What's the full schedule? Are we doing a wrench clinic, MTB 101, ride anything like that? I seem to recall talk of all that stuff but don't know if any of it is actually happening.
