OPENING DAY APRIL 5, 2014!

Shark Cove, Mi. - It has been like “Ground Hog Day” for our intrepid hero this month of March.  As dawn breaks over the Shark Cove each morning, and after evacuation of his bladder, the old Shark looks out the window and seeing the dark, cold morning that awaits, like Punxsutawney Phil, he crawls back into bed and pulls the covers over his head and goes back to sleep. Ah, how our hero loves his bed…..

As readers of Belo News are well aware, the Nation has had an Opening Day on the second Saturday of March for the past 8 years, but due to the weather, it was postponed this year.  Realizing there was just too much snow on the roads and the continued predictions for cold caused the Commissioner of Cycling to postpone to April.  With Barry-Roubaix on March 22, and with the Sharkman out of town on March 29, it was determined to postpone until April 5. 

Oh, the humanity!

Since the Editors of Belo News will be out on the coast with the Sharkman, covering his every move, there may not be an edition next week, so remember to mark your calendars for:

Saturday, April 5!

Launch Time - 10:00 A.M. - SHARP!

Be there!


MINIONS ROCK AT BARRY-ROUBAIX!
Cannon on the podium again!

Hasting, Mi. - Thinking that Barry-Roubaix was the last Saturday in March, the Sharkman did not enter this annual Hell of the North Race as he was planning on being out of town. When he realized the real date, it was too late to enter.  Additionally, he is in terrible shape at the moment! No, really......

However, the Nation rode and did well!

Hoosier Boy at Barry-Roubaix!
As a matter of fact, our own Cannon made the podium, taking third place in his age group!  Belo News is also aware that a major contingent of Team Taylor/Minion Nation riders took part!

Rainman and Hoosier Boy were also in attendance!  Hopefully, we will have more information in upcoming editions!

Great job Minions, you did the Nation proud!

Shark Cove, Mi. - After the last edition of Belo News hit the air waves, a faithful reader went to the Melting Man video and reported that new Minion, Cool Dad, was featured in the opening clip!  Belo News regrets not reporting this in the issue and needed to set the record straight.  Though Cool Dad is new to the Nation and has not taken part in a KK-TdG, he has been to the Iceman with the Nation.  Welcome to the Nation Cool Dad and nice job at Melting Man!
