Sun., 6/14 PBA Hot Diggity Dog Ride – The summer meeting schedule starts off with our annual Hot Diggity Dog Rides on Sunday, June 14. This years rides will start at the home of Leslie & Howard Beizer, 22570 Tally Ho Drive, Carrollton.

            There will be two great rides on country roads: a 50-mile, B-pace starting at 8:00 a.m. and a 27-mile, C-pace starting at 9:00 a.m. Both rides will have a rest stop at historic Fort Boykin. The rides should end between 11:30 and 12:00.

            Everyone should bring either a salad or dessert for all to share. The club will provide the Nathan's hot dogs, condiments, paper products, plastic ware, soda and chips. If you want something else to grill, bring it. A grill will be provided for your use.

            The general business meeting will follow the feast if you can stay awake by then. Please call Leslie or Howard Beizer at 356-1451 or email hbeizer@aol.com if you plan to attend. This will give us an idea of how many hot dogs and buns we will need. Even if you don’t want to or can’t ride, come out for the food and camaraderie of your fellow cyclists and club members. This is a great opportunity to meet other club members and perhaps new riding partners. Bring a lawn chair if you want to keep your bottom off the ground.

            The Hot Diggity Dog Rides are the first of our three summer meetings/ride format. The After the Fourth of July Rides is a catered affair and free to all PBA members. The final summer meeting/ride is the August Ice Cream Rides. Look for details next month on the After the Fourth of July Rides and meeting.
