A review of Race Across the Sky
Just got back from seeing Race across the Sky - Similiar to the feeling some might have after seeing a Rocky Film, people I spoke with wanted to hop on their bikes and ride out to Leadville. The film was awesome with it's images, soundtrack The drama of Leadville comes to life on the big screen. The panel with Lance, Dave Wiens, and Travis Brown after the movie brought you even closer to the race experience at Leadville.If you missed it...Too Bad (Just Kidding) WHat you can do is call your theatre and ask them to show it again if enough people ask this movie can make it as a mainstream film. While it not be the sleeper of the year this is a great cycling movie that brings you into the action and emotion of this epic race.

3rd Annual MTBNJ.com Picnic
3rd Annual MTBNJ.com Picnic
Date: Sunday, October 11, 2009
Location: Lewis Morris County Park, Main Pavilion
Time: 12:00 to ??? (or dusk, whichever comes first)
All are invited to attend the 3rd Annual MTBNJ.com Picnic. This event will be held at Lewis Morris County Park in Morristown, NJ. This is a family-friendly event intended to bring together riders, their partners, and children for a fun day of riding trails, sharing great food, and getting to know each other better.
We have reserved the main sheltered picnic pavilion, where the Lewis Morris Challenge is staged. Start time is approximate, and this is an all day event.
It looks like we will have a great turnout for the picnic and appreciate your offers to help feed this crowd. This will be a "Bring Your Own Beverage(s) of Choice" event. We had a LOT of great food last. Fortunately, the leftovers did not go to waste, as we were able to donate them to a local food shelter in Morristown.
We plan on doing the same this year. Here are the 4 categories, please try to serve 4-6, and we will "close" a category once it appears we have enough:
Charcoal:
TonyW
Chips, Dips Chains & Whips (pick foods):
Guac, El Zoller
Spinach Dip - Chris26er, formally OBB
Salads/Sides:
Emma's kicking spicy coleslaw - Brandon
Mains:
Desserts:
Condiments/Extras:
