Hi folks and happy Halloweekend.
October is coming to an end — you know what that means! — and there plenty of events to get into the spirit. Halloween rides where you visit cemeteries, ride by spooky decorated houses, and more. Costumes are encouraged. Even the Cyclocross Crusade is going halloweening on Sunday with their costume competition. A special mention to Teatro Milagros’s celebration of the Día de los Muertos with their Altar Tour ride on Saturday.
As if it was necessary to say it, remember to have fun!
