Egan 2023.26 - The Season Finale (Egan Women meet at 5:40pm)
Weep ye bitter tears, for the season of Eganing is coming to an end. This Tuesday we will be riding the traditional First and Last Route with Jerome’s favorite pop singer addition (Madonna!). It’s short, but that just means you can go harder on each segment; we expect to see many PRs and cups, and hopefully a few crowns. Your efforts could be rewarded with some tasty treats at the end, but only if you go full gas and have something crazy on you (like a panda helmet) or your bike (pink tassels)!
Egan Women meet at 5:40pm, leave @ 5:45 - Leader: Robin Betz
Everyone else meet at 6:00, leave @ 6:05 - Leaders: Jerome, Matt, Mike and Tanner
And don’t free up that Tuesday evening slot on your calendar just yet! Tuesday, October 3rd will be the traditional end-of-season banquet; details to follow.
