Hotel Reservations for Bike MS event

Don't forget to make your hotel reservations for the event. Most of us are staying at the Best Western Admiral's Inn in Winter Haven on Friday night. I'm thinking of trying to do a cookout around the hotel pool instead of going out to dinner (if there is enough interest). The host hotel for Saturday night is the Rosen Centre. The Rosen Centre will sell out fast so don't wait to make reservations! If you would like to share a room, let Michelle know so she can match you up! (or post your comment on the blog....)

Jersey Order

Get your Blazin Bunz jersey now! We need to order a minimum of 12 jerseys. The consensus so far is for short sleeved jerseys. If we want to order sleeveless, we'll need to order 24 jerseys. This is a great jersey! We have people stop us all the time asking to take pictures! Don't miss out on your opportunity to get one hot jersey! And while you're at it -- you could recruit your friends and family to participate in the ride too (and get them to order jerseys). We have riders with all abilities from novice to racers! The more Bunz on the road, the more fun we'll have!

Sunday Ride on the Pinellas Trail

Kay and I are going to be meeting Nicole and Jess for a leisurely ride on the Pinellas Trail. Kay and I are leaving from our house at 7am. We're going to meet up with Nicole and Jess at 9am at Taylor Park in Largo (right off the trail). Then we're going to ride north and stop somewhere for brunch. Then we'll head back to St Petersburg. If you're interested in joining us, let me know and we'll find a place to meet.
