Galesburg, Mi. - As the entire cycling world is aware, our intrepid hero's Birthday Ride was rained out. But that didn't stop a small but ruckus group of Minions to celebrate the diminutive Shark's 70th Birthday!
Yeti Boys Masterpiece and Mrs. Yeti's artwork!

Yeti Boy, proving once again that he is a World Class Baker, provided the Raspberry Birthday Cake and Sharkman bought the koffee! This is a great country!

Zyckmann arrived in his Shark Minion Jersey claiming he had read the blog (for a change) as the koffee started to flow!

Bissell Boy, Mrs. Yeti Boy, Fire, Reb, Hermster, Wildman and Super Trooper were all in attendance and sang a pretty good rendition of "Happy Birthday" while Sharkman blasted the candles in one breath!

There was even enough cake for the second shift of the Early Morning Koffee Group and for Andrew!

Big thanks to Lava Girl, Yeti Boy and wife, Mrs. Yeti and the entire crew for making Sharkman fell special! (Well, even more special than he thinks he already is!!!)

After speeches by the Mayor of Galesburg, a couple of Senators and a Congressman and, of course, the Governor, the paparazzi grabbed a few photos and the press interviewed their cycling hero's, talking about how the season would continue in Sharkman's absence.

It was decided that the KK-TdG would continue for the next two weeks, with Wildman volunteering to lead the Nation. The Nation will then move to Fort Custer for mountain biking the last two weeks of October before the In Leiu of Iceman Ride and Party on November 3, 2019.

Unfortunately, there will be no Belo News for the next two weeks. Oh, the humanity!!!

But the ride goes on!

Saturday, October 5, 2019 Launch Time - 8:30 a.m. - SHARP!

Saturday, October 12, 2019 Launch Time - 8:30 a.m. - SHARP!

Riders are on their own concerning the weather, however, Wildman said he would do his best to be there!

Saturday, October 19, 2019 the Nation will move to Fort Custer and more information will be put out that week when the Sharkman returns!

In the interim, ride safe!!!
