SHOUT OUT to Deputy Broderson from the Lake Meridian Tri

Some of you might remember Deputy Broderson as the STUD cop who arrested a truck driver harassing athletes at the Lake Meridian Triathlon last year. Broderson went over his bars on a ride earlier this week and ended up breaking his femur.  OWWWWwwwwww.    The RTB family wishes our comrade a very speedy recovery!!!

Bike and/or Run at Whitney Bridge 8 AM Saturday

The weather looks like 60% chance of no rain (glass half full weather report) but bring both your bike and running shoes and if you do not want to ride due to the weather, you can still run/walk. There is a lovely run from Whitney Bridge into Flaming Geyser Park. And if you ride and want to follow with a run/walk, that works too. This is a no drop ride, some route options here: http://www.calendarwiz.com/calendars/calendar.php?crd=rtbcalendar&&jsenabled=...
