    There's a ride called the Monster Cookie that is put on by the Salem bicycle club every year. I rode it last year and it is flat, flat, flat. A good ride for the long distance fixed rider. You'd want to drive to the start though because it starts and ends at the Salem state capitol building.

    April 27 (Sunday) | 100-km or 63-miles | My time last year 3 hrs flat.

    If there is an interest, I may ride it fixed with people.

    I think there's a pretty good chance I'll do this. 3 hours would be what I would shoot for if I was riding in a pace line. Not sure if I could keep that up by myself.

    ... actually this ride is pretty flat so 21 shouldn't be much of an issue.

    dammit, i was wanting to ride around town and eat giant cookies.

    MIN -- do you have a group you're riding with for this?

    Yeah a crew of 5 or 6 roadies. Sounds like there is slim interest here so I am going to do it geared.

    Alex could keep up with gears. Just look at the car chase he got into with the police on friday.
