Greetings All,
I have just got our Raspberry Ramble series (starting in Logan in July...300km, 400km and 600km) approved and posted on the site for your review.

How is everyone doing in their training? Our first 200k is about a month away.

I need some help. Since I live in the boondocks, I rarely visit any metro bike shops. I have a mini-flyer made up for use as a P.R. piece that could be left at bike shop counters. If I mail you guys a small stack of these, can you drop them by your local shop in the next two weeks? If so, let me know how many shops you can drop at and your current address.

I'll probably be doing the 100k in a month.  Hopefully my road bike is back from being worked on.  Otherwise I'll have be on my MTB turned commuter or perhaps looking for a stoker for the tandem if that is in (I don't think my wife would be up for a metric).  I may try to knock off a 200k later on in the season, but I've been pitching doing PBP again in 2015 and am finally making some headway, so I am walking a delicate line with spending too much time cycling vs with the family.   

I can drop some flyers at 3 shops: Wastach Touring, 2nd & 2nd, and Saturday Cycles.  I refuse to go into Bountiful Bicycle b/c they are usually arrogant jerks and dishonest, but I may be able to hold my nose to walk in and drop off some flyers.  I can probably drop off at Biker's Edge in Kaysville as well if no one else is up there.

Email me and I'll give you my address.

Richard, please send me a stack and I will get them out to the shops in the Ogden area. BTW, I did the Death Valley Double Century on March 2nd. Perfect weather and fun ride! Jim

I am getting ready for the Tour Divide MTB race in June so wont be taking part in the randos this season much if at all, but I would be happy to drop some flyers off at Cottonwood Cycles and Salt City Cycles in Sandy if you want to send a few to me. I am on good terms with both shops. Address is: 3414 Enchanted Hills Dr, Salt Lake City, UT, 84121.

Thanks,
Rich Otterstrom

Thanks Rich. Excuse my ignorance, but how long (miles and days) is the Tour Divide?
Is that the grueling self-contained multi day thing? If so, email me off list as I want talk Bike Packing bags with you for that trip. I'm intrigued by some of the designs out there and may enter that niche market of bike bags.

Richard,
Looks like most of the bike shops up here are allready covered, but I could drop some flyers off at a Bingham Cycle in Sunset and Canyon Sports in Riverdale (I think thats still there). Those are the only ones around here I know of that weren't allready mentioned.

Sounds good. Look for them late next week. I've got a trip to Portland and a 200K to do first.
