Riding, racing, and living (if you can call this a life) in New Orleans. "Bike racing is art. Art is driven by passion, by emotions, by unknown thoughts. The blood that pumps through my veins is stirred by emotion. It's the same for every athlete. And that's why we do this." - Chris Carmichael

Calling All NOLA Dino Riders
It's the 50th anniversary of the New Orleans Bicycle Club, and we're having a little post-Tour party over at Wrong Iron on the Greenway, right next-door to Bayou Bicycles, on June 23. In addition to all of our Tour de Louisiane sponsors, volunteers and NOBC club members we'd like to invite all of our NOBC alumni and other area cycling dinosaurs who raced back in the 70's, 80's and 90's when nobody complained about doing 80 mile unsupported road races in July while wearing leather-lined baggy wool shorts, jerseys with front pockets stinky leather gloves, questionable helmets, and cleats barely nailed onto flexy leather-soled shoes. Come on over and recount your highly embellished tales of cycling prowess and former glory. I'd email all of you, but I know those old .aol email IDs are probably just going to bounce anyway, I'm posting this here and asking that you pass it along to your old riding buddies by whatever means available. We have the outdoor, sheltered Smoky Mary room reserved. Wrong Iron is 21 and up only.
