Tony's
American Grill & Tap
Address: 1085 Holcomb Bridge Rd.
Roswell, GA 30076
Telephone: 770-993-2834
Come out and meet your fellow mountain bikers,
find a new riding partner, place to ride, or a whole new feeling
about the possibilities in the Roswell Alpharetta area. Work parties
generally meet at 9AM at location noted, last til lunch (which is
provided), and a ride after almost always follows.
Board Meetings are held to keep some of the more
mundane business topics from needing to be discussed at the normal
club meetings. All are welcome to the board meetings, and the dates

Master Calendar Maker Eases MTB Scheduling
Mike Young has created a Google RAMBO calendar from club member Joe's tremendous effort. We now have access to not 1, but 4 calendars, all with different types of events:
RAMBO Chapter
SORBA
Southeast Races
Woodstock Chapter
To integrate these calendar events into your own Google calendar:
1) Create a Google Account if you do not already have one.
2) Open each of the calendars above and click on the tiny "Subscribe" link at the bottom right of the calendar.
3) Follow subsequent instructions.
As dates and details change, you will then get automatic updates. Extra credit:If you use Google homepage, you can add the calendar to homepage.
Thank you, Mike! |

Day Ride May 18th, 08 - Dauset
Nothing like fair weather to bring out the MTB beast in all of us. After our group ride at Conyers this Sunday, we agreed to another day ride in 2 weeks. That's May 18th. We discussed Dauset, but will entertain Tanasi or Raccoon. So start working on your day pass and let Joe know at "Baker, Joe" josephkbaker@bellsouth.net

Saturday AM ride Dupont (possible major epic ride with lots of exploring!)
Saturday late PM return to Pisgah for more riding (if ya got it left in ya)
Sunday...open for either Pisgah or Dupont again
As always we'll break up into groups by riding level and everyone will have a great time.
More details to follow. Please let us know if you are coming ASAP so we can plan accordingly. Let Joe know.
RAMBO group rides are coordinated by...
dedicated RAMBO Ride Directors well qualified to guide all skill levels. Planned MTB rides are listed below. However, we entertain and encourage all requests. For scheduled rides, it is important to notify us in advance of your intent to attend. Drop us a line via our contact form at http://www.rambo-mtb.org/about.php.

As always...NO HELMET - NO RIDE.
08 rides planning input sought
Day and weekend rides input sought. Please email ride coordinator Joe with dates that you can ride and then we can see about getting things on the Calendar. First on the agenda is when to do a return trip to the fab FATs redux. (see November 07 Pix http://www.rambo-mtb.org/gallery/rambofats07)
Day rides to Raccoon, Conyers, Blankets to hit the new trail, Chicopee to hit the new stuff, Dauset, ...(and anyplace else you want to go) are all possible.
