Bad timing sabotaged what could have been a mini-renaissance for bikes. We had to deal with bridges being constructed, bridges being eroded and bridges tripping up cyclists and breaking bones. All this bridgework was more like a visit to the dentist than a chance to attract new cyclists! Now cold weather is here; gas prices are way, way down; the economy is in a tailspin; and the challenge of making cycling a viable transporta See Bikeways and Beyond/B Affiliations ffi ffi &#wenturm. ffi ffi #y*llrtffi &m,m wfr wtlmn $c rg Htu**fl$*.rs$L iwilsr,"q r*rff srflTn reer ssmvls rffift Dnvroru Cyci-rr.rc CLus Sporr N'Ltrur Jnruunny-Mnncn 2009 The Spoke N'Linkis published eight times ayear by the Dayton Cycling Club, a not-for-profit educational and recreational organization for bicyclists in the Miami Valley.

Finally, the editorial deadf ine for the January/FebruarylMarch newsletter is Dec. 5. Advertisernents and mileage reports are due by Dec. 10. Chuck Smith, advocacy director, talked about the fall Ohio Bicycle Federation meeting/celebration to be held ut the Bicycle Museum of America in f iew Bremen on Oct. 13. The museum houses the world's largest bicycle collectioil, and there will be a special tour at 1 1 a.m. for which there will be no charge.

Srnith distributed information regarding the costs for using the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base Officers Club for the DCC Banquet. Snrith will also investigate the Engineers Club downtown as a site for the banquet, since it would offer a central location. A firm date for the banquet will be determined when a site is selected. Bikeways Director Chris Brown stated that he tried riding Monday, Sept. 15, after the huge windstorm in Dayton. The bikeways were covered with debris and obstructed by fallen trees. He noted that Five Rivers MetroParks did an excellent job of quickly clearing the bikeways; by Thursday the bikeway from Woodbine Avenue to Eastwood MetroPark was clear. Also cliscussed was the fact that atleast one bridge is closed on the Little Miami Scenic Trail near Corwin. [t was noted that the bridges in that area can be hazardous when wet and that one rider was seriously injured when he fell on one of the bridges in that area. Touring Captain Tom Wilson reported that two area ride coordinators are no longer interested in coordinating rides. He noted concerns among some ride coordinators that since there will be fewer newsletters, it will be difficult to list rides. Wert Minardi stated that a number of clubs have resorted to quarterly newsletters. Kiesel added that the website is updated daily and rides can be updated there. Social Director Beverly Owens reported that there was a poor turnout for the annual DCC picnic Sept. 27 at Eastwood MetroPark. The day of the picnic was cloudy, and rain threatened. Because of the threatening weather and poor turnout, the picnic ended early at 1 :45 p.m. ln old business, Wert Minardi mentioned the possibility of holding the DCC banquet at the Hope Hotel at Wright-Patterson AFB. Smith will investigate this location. Taulbee stated that there is sorneone interested in serving as the 2009 social director, and she will follow up on this possibility. Witte initiated discussion of new and different rides the club could offer. He brought up the possibility of a poker ride.

Every year DLM, which has stores in Oakwood, Washington Twp. and Springboro, rebates $75,000 to community organizattons. The rebates are based on how much members of the participating organizations spend at DLM during the calendar year. As of Oct . 72, seven DCC members had met the $250 minimum, with a total spent of $ 16,692.06. At the time, our spending represented 0.203 percent of the total of all participating organizatrolls. On Oct. 72, we would have received 0. 203 percent of $2S,000, or $ \52.1 3. The amount we've spent certainly has gone up since then, so the DCC should receive between $ 150 and $200 in February or so. If you ever shop at Dorothy Lane Market, consider signing up for the Good Neighbor Prograr'n. You will need to get a DLM shopper's card and let the cashier scan it each tirne you buy something atDLM. You also need to fill out a Good Neighbor Program enrollment form (available at the front desk of any of the stores) and indicate the Dayton Cycling Club as your selected charity. If you are nervous about participating, rest assured that the Dorothy Lane Market does not give out or sell any personal information gleaned from shopper's card usage. Although I receive periodic updates about the DCC's status in the Good Neighbor Progr&ffi, I am not privy to our member parttcipants' nAmes or shopping habits. The Dayton Cycling Club's Morrow Wine Ride, like great vintage wine, only gets better with age. This year was a great ride for all of us. The weather was perfect and the participants stayed together, riding at a reasonable pace. The lunch stops were delightful, and the motel included a complimentary large breakfast that even included waffies and yogurt. The winery dinner offered either steak or salmon with a bottle of wine, so what more could one want? Many thanks to Joan Rudy, who every year organizes this ride, It's a challenge, but she readily meets it. Mary Lemaster, Steve Kamas and Kate (Joan's sister), who happily sagged the ride, also deserve thanks. It was a truly rnemorable, pleasurable event!6b t-Bikeway Mileage Report --] Bikeway miles are those ridden on a non-listed ride, at least half of which is on a bikeway. Qualify for the Cyclo-Path Award by accumulating 125 non-repeatingmiles on recreational path rides. For example, if you ride from Fifth Third Gateway Park in Beavercreek to Xenia Station and back, you would have ridden 20 bikeway miles, but only 10 of them would count toward your 125 Cyclo,Path miles.

Preposterous petroleurn prices helped prod our commuters to pedal more. If gasoline prices continue to fall, it will be interesting to see whether another DCC commuting mil eage record is set in 20A9 or the reduced incentive to bike commute cuts the miles.

I hope to quickly get up to speed on the responsibilities of the new position. I live in the Englewood area and have been a Dayton Cycling Club member since 2006.l recently retired after years of working in the computer industry, and look forward to having more time to ride. I lead a ride out of Brookville each Friday (except in January and Febru ary) at a slow pace to Arcanum for lunch. We alternate between two restaurants, and bottr have great food. Come out and join us. I can guarantee good food, great people and no hills ! Now that winter is here , it' s the perfect time to start .We thinking about rides for the upcoming riding season. have several regular club rides scheduled each week and a few special rides such as the Morrow Wine Ride, Old World Tour, Christmas Lights Ride and the Covered Bridge Tour. ['m hoping to get ideas from members on other types of rides you would enjoy. If you have any suggestions, please contact me. Here are my thoughts on some new rides we could offer: . Family rides with the kids for ice cream . Multi-day tours with overnight camping. The Junction Festival in Milford would be a good destination for this one. o Night rides. 'Wb have beautiful trails in the area that are great for night riding. o Rides to local festivals. I've done this with my grandkids, and they loved it. I liked not having the hassle of parking. o ,A ride for new members to meet other club members. { dam ride: We have some great parks with nice picnic facilities Around the dams in the area.

I'm hoping to hear from you if there are any you would like to bring back. Check the DCC website for touring meeting I will hold a touring meeting in early spring for touring coordinators, ride leaders and anyone else interested in attending.

The day was overcast andbreezy, but the temperature reached a mild 55 degrees. There was no snow or fog, which had put the kibosh on the event in 2006 and 20A7, respectively. I very nearly had to cancel this year's ride because my daughter, Clara, come down with strep throat the day before. In additioil, my husband, Mark, left on a business trip to Boston just an hour before the ride's start. Since Clara had been on rnedication tor 24 hours and was f eelin g a lot better, I decided she and I would play Rudolph in our car. Eleven people showed up at the Marion's Prazza parking lot at" Patterson and Shroyer roads in Dayton. Fran and Rick Phillips were the most festive, since they had colorful strings of lights on their bike frames. In a little more than an hour and nearly I miles of riding, we traveled through Dayton's Patterson Park neighborhood, Kettering's brightly decorated Lincoln Park and Oakwood. Luminaria festooned Oakwood's Shaf or Boulevard and many of the side streets. This lent a cozy glow to the evening. In the night's only rnishap, we lost Dale Williamson on the uphill trek to Lincoln Park. It's difficult to keep track of each other in the dark ! Fortunately, Dale found his way back to Marion's. Back at Marion's, W'illiamson and non-riders Anita Patten, Bob Tackett and Joan Rudy were waiting to eat pizzaand socialize with us. It was a very pleasant,laidback evening. Thanks to all the participants, particularly Chris Brown, who acted as our cycling leader.& Cgcling Shorts Compiled by Kay Wert Minardi DCC newsletter editor .
