Shark
Cove, Mi. - So, what happened last Saturday in the peloton, you might
ask?
Unfortunately, Belo News doesn't know because the
News Room only received one report from the Nation.
Ace
Reporter and legendary rider, Dr. Dave reported in that Gazelle Girl,
the “Sweetheart of the Peloton” had broken a rear wheel and
decided to ride a 1949 Vintage Indian Motorcycle. However,
subsequent investigative efforts revealed that though she did
actually break a wheel, she rode a back up bike and the motorcycle
was actually parked at the Queen's Grill (that the Nation knows as
“Frona's”) and they took the opportunity to take the photo. Mad
Dog had quickly began preparing a protest on her attendance record on
a motorcycle but just as quickly, withdrew the protest when he
learned she was actually on a bike.
It
was also learned that there were approximately 20 riders last week
and that is all that was reported.
Obviously,
the Nation needs the Sharkman to return!
Oh,
the humanity!
And
return he will!
This
Saturday, July 18, 2015!

| Easty's note and check for the "Tour of Central Kalamazoo County!" |
July

Shark
Cove, Mi. - When our intrepid hero returned from his California visit
with his Sharklet's, he was pleased when he opened his mail and found
a check, made out to Sharkman, in the amount of $20 from none other
than Easty! Easty, who was amazed at the amount of sites on
Sharkman's totally awesome “Tour of Central Kalamazoo County,”
had submitted the check for a season pass on the sites! Oh, the
humanity!
Sharkman
has finally collected! It is reported that he considered cashing the
check, but since he does not have an identification card that has his
Sharkman name on it, thought that might be difficult. Besides, he is
planning to frame this baby as a testament to his entrepreneurial
acumen in the world of cycling! Thanks, Easty, you made the
Sharkman's day!
Sharkman
would like to remind all that it is only $20 for a season pass to see
all the sites on the occasional “Tour of Central Kalamazoo County”
so save up those dollars and get a check to our intrepid hero as
quickly as you can! Summer will soon be over!
MINION
MOVIE NOT ABOUT THE NATION!?! HUH?

| Minions? Well, they do sort of look like the Nation..... |
July
10, 2015
Walnut
Creek, Ca. - It seemed like anyone who is anyone in the mighty Minion
Nation was wild with anticipation for the new Minion Movie. After
all, what could be better than a movie about the mighty Minion
Nation. Sharkman, also wild with anticipation, took four of his
sharklets to see it, sure that they would enjoy watching a movie
about creatures that adore their grandpa Shark.
Imagine
his disappointment to learn that this movie was in fact, about some
other Minions!?! What the........
Despite
his disappointment, Sharkman could be heard to be giggling and
laughing with his Sharklets through out the movie and as a matter of
fact, it kicked butt at the box office, though we suspect that is
because so many of the Nation went to see it as well!

July

South
Haven, Mi. - Though Belo News does not usually report on none cycling
events, a friend of the Editor is helping to organize a Mud Run that
is also a fund raiser for their church. Additionally, Belo News
knows there are some crazy Minions who enjoy these type of events.
Even our own intrepid hero, the Sharkman, used to do these types of
events until his feet gave out.
But
if you are looking for some fun in the mud, this might be the race
for you!
So
here is more about this event!
On
Saturday, August 1, 2015, will be the first "Casco's Ultimate
Mud Challenge, in what is hoped to be an annual event. It will be a
5K off-road Obstacle Course Run (OCR) hosted by Casco United
Methodist Church (CUMC) at Lake Arvesta Farms LLC. helping us to
fulfill our mission statement, 'Building up the Kingdom of God
N.O.W., through Nurture Outreach and Witness.'

achieve our goal "To Support Ministries that Support Others".
Proceeds generated will help to fund a variety of ministries which
focus on the support of others locally, nationally and
internationally.

This
event will have four main race parts:

will be a 'Mud-Free' 5K race to start the day for runners who like
5Ks, but don't want to get muddy. As the property does not have any
paved roads, it will still be some what off road but with a path that
avoids most of the off-road challenges and all the water and mud
hazards.
The
Kids' Run: The
final event of the day will be a 1K Youth Fun Run for Cids (Kids)12
years of age and younger. This run will be through some of the
