We Are the Slo'Bros
The founding motherfathers of the
Slo'Bros had their first ride and loved it. A new cycling club is
born. Here is a brief description of that first ride by our chief
founding motherfather: (That is nowhere near as rude as it somehow sounds.)
We actually went out this morning,
hoping for a dry ride and getting none. Couple of hours, 25 miles,
laughing all the way. (Well, technically, only during the first hour
and a half, before we came up on an overpass, ran out of gas and
things got really quiet...)
Yes,
we are the Slo'Bros. And who are the Slo'Bros you probably aren't
asking, but I'll tell you anyway?
The vibe is completely social, no
more than two hours, gentleman's pace always, no drops ever, tandems
and friends/family tagging along highly encouraged
And, there you have it. We aren't
hammerheads. We don't race. We just ride and have a good time.
If you come with us on a ride and start
to hammer, we will quite happily watch you disappear over the horizon
and wish you well, but we won't try to keep up with you. We ride!
Once a week, anyway.
We don't have a logo or a club jersey -
that would take effort, after all.
And, you know what? We're okay with
that.
Have you ever been on a nice social
ride and had it splinter or turn into a hammerfest because one or two
guys decided they just had to lift the pace? That is not the
Slo'Bros way.
Tandems? Cool. Training wheels?
Fine. Mountain bike? Go for it. Steel frame? Sure thing. Energy
shots? You won't need them. We are the Slo'Bros. If we had a logo,
it might be a lanterne rouge
or possibly a broom.
But we do have a motto:
Follow us - it's REALLY easy.
