A few late season topics....

To all, 

1) Most of the randonneuring season has been a bust due to the virus but a few of us did the KC 200 & 300 K yesterday.  We are going to run a couple of the Columbia rides as RUSA events on November 7th & 8th  (see the website for details:  https://www.audaxkc.com/).  For most riders, these will be new routes.  I will help increasing the routes for this award:  https://rusa.org/pages/award-scout

2) Photos:  If anyone has a cycling photo that they would like being on the 2021 Schedule Card, please send it my way.  Brevet photos are always preferred, but that may be tough in a pandemic year.

3) RUSA Election for Board Members starts on November 1st.  

Of note, Dan Diehn from Wisconsin is running.  He is a friend of mine and has ridden a number of KC and Nebraska events.  He is a very experienced rider who is level headed.  Of note, he is a district attorney by day, which can benefit the board as there are a fair amount of legal issues that come up every year.  

Ride lots,

Spencer

"It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them.  Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle." - Ernest Hemingway
