\nNext Meeting Jan 3 at 7pm
\nInstead of having a speaker we will be having a bike gadget “show-and-tell” of sorts. We are asking everyone who is attending to bring in their favorite bike gadgets to show off. This should be good timing since a lot of us will be getting new gadgets for Christmas. This can be anything from components, computers, GPS’s, lights, pedals, cleats, shoes, accessories, and even clothing, jackets and gloves. This will be an interactive information sharing session so we hope all will come prepared to participate. more info.<\/p>\n
