Picture Perfect!
Oct 11'th was probably some of the best weather yet for biking... a nice crisp fall day, not too hot and not too cold! Sorry, not a lot of photos this time... I was enjoying the ride too much and forgot to take pictures!
Thanks to everyone that made it out... be sure to join us on the 25th for the season finale!

August 23 - Come on Ride the Train!
What a GREAT turnout on this picture-perfect Summer day that the Lord provided! 22 riders were there bright and early and boarded the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad for biking adventure! One group opted for a shorter ride from the Brecksville stop, about 7 miles. The rest opted for a longer ride of 12 miles from the Canal Visitors Center.
The fun included lots of interesting poses for pictures on the train, a captivating turtle in the lock at the Canal Visitors Center, and fixing a flat tire in record time! At least riders and bikes stayed together this time!!
Thanks to everyone that came out and to everyone that was involved this Summer! Now, here are the pics!

August 10th - Going the Distance!
What a great crisp and sunny day for a bike ride! We had 12 come out, including a couple of new faces, ready to break the all time distance record with a ride of 14.5 miles! Thanks to: Bob, Dave, Ed, Mark, Brenda, Jim, Jeremy, Will, Tom, Chard, and Terrie! Also joining us for the picnic later were Christina, Lisa, and Tom W.

July 27th
We had beautiful weather and a GREAT turnout on this biking day.....we even had a four legged friend join us this time!! I am not sure what was more exciting.....the biker dog or Anita's flat tire fixed in 10 minutes!! WOW.......I have never seen a tire fixed sooooo fast [the pictures say it all!!] We all had a GREAT time biking and enjoying the beautiful weather as we chatted along the trail. We ended up at the ice cream shop to cool down after a nice long bike ride! It is always nice to spend an afternoon with friends!!
Two sets of photos this time... be sure to check them both out!

Rain Rain Go AWAY!
Go away is right... the Lord did not dissapoint turning those grey skies into a PERFECT day for biking, complete with bright sunshine and a perfect temperature! We had eight come out for biking, with one first-timer: Bob! There was a little mud on the trail, but we all stayed relatively clean... hope that new shirt is ok, Meredith! Szalays did not dissapoint with a huge crowd. Luckily the "Big Swing" was available again! We even introduced a new sport at the picnic: "windless kite flying" :) Thanks to everyone that came out, and hope those that couldn't make it can come to the next one!
Here are the pictures! Click on the Arrow to play the slideshow!
And, for something completely different... we were able to capture the true excitement of the "Big Swing" in this video! Don't try this at home!

June 29th
What a gorgeous day it turned out to be! OK...we didnt get enough for dodge ball but we had a GREAT game of monkey in the middle and frisbee :) We started off on the trails....we talked and played games while we were riding....this was a GREAT time of fellowship! We then stopped at this really pretty picnic area and rested a while, just to meet up with a few of our ladies walking the trail. When we all returned we headed over for some icecream!! We all experienced a little bit of a sugar rush.....but.....the kids seemed to be the most effected...lol!! What better way to enjoy the aftermath of all that sugar than to play a game of monkey in the middle. I am not sure who had more fun, Dave or the girls :) We all then enjoyed a GREAT game of frisbee....thanks to Kristy :) Between hearing Hope say throw it to me Snyderman100 times, Ed's fancy frisbee tricks, Anita's acrobatic skills, Kristy's throwin it straight coachin, Hannah's dodging Ed's tricks all the time, Dave's multi taskin...picture takin....frisbee throwin, Jeremy's givin everyone a turn, and my throwin it really hard and callin the rain down on us, we all had a fabulous time!! Nearly four hours later we called it a night! We hope you all join in on the fun next time!!

Come and join us this Sunday!!
We are looking forward to a GREAT turnout this Sunday! After church we will head to Canal Fulton Park to go biking! This is a beautiful trail with many things to see along the way. We will then walk to the ice cream shop that is a stones throw away. I wonder who will get the better flavor this time?
If you have biked with us in the past, we hope to see you again! If you have not had the chance to join us, come on out and give it a try....you will love the fellowship!!
We had 25 people show up on May 4th. Let's try to beat that number this Sunday! We played a great game of football this day! LETS PLAY SOME KICKBALL THIS TIME! This is a fun game that EVERYONE can join in on! If we get enough people, we will head over to the beautiful field by the biking trail after ice cream and play!! If you want to show up after biking, we are usually done by 3:30. There is a beautiful bridge and sheltered seating to await the group as we bike back. You may even get to see the horses! We want everyone to feel welcome, whether you are a biker, three scoop ice cream eater (that would be me), or a kickball pro (I want you on my team...lol), we hope you will join us!!

What started out as grey skies ended up a beautiful summer day! What a pleasant ride! Not too hot and not too cold, just right! Along the way we enjoyed the scenery and stopped at Szalay's produce market for a little break. Some of us sat and eat blackberries and peaches while others took a ride on the big swing! Thanks to Bill Louth for buying three bags of produce which we all were able to enjoy at the picnic. The pinapple was so fresh...just ask Anita...lol! When all the fruit was gone (smiling), Dave got the frisbee out to toss around! What a blessing to have fellowship with eachother! We hope to see you all next time!

May 18th - Ice cream for everyone!
We had a little bit of everything. A little rain, a little clouds, a little hail, a little mudd, and a little sun! What a beautiful day it turned out to be! It was a very pleasant ride.....familiar places with new faces! It was great getting to know everyone! We headed to the ice cream shop after the ride. This is when the wheels really started turning!! Many were very creative in their choices of icecream. We all had to try eachother's to see whose was better. If you ask me, I think the chocolate peanut butter was the winner!
