Tour Des Chutes Ride is Saturday

This is for all you avid cyclists. The fifth annual “Tour Des Chutes” is Saturday July 18, 2009. The ride is organized by brain cancer survivor, Gary Bonacker and benefits the Lance Armstrong Foundation as well as the St. Charles Cancer center. It is a great ride and offers various lengths of rides from 7, 25, 48, 70 and 90 miles. Hopefully it won’t be too hot and there will be lots of riders participating. After the ride the atmosphere is very festive and you get a giant burrito courtesy of Longboard Loui’s of Bend. Hope to see you there.

Cheers!

Golf.com Article on CO Golf

It’s pretty cool when you get free publicity as we did in the Golf.com’s article about golf in Central Oregon (well, ok it actually says Bend, but covers Sunriver Resort all the way to Black Butte Ranch). Check out their review of the Big Meadow course atBBR http://www.golf.com/golf/courses_travel/article/0,28136,1908504,00.html. The author wrote”In truth, this is exactly the kind or course you want to play on the first day of your vacation, unlike its sisters track Glaze Meadow, which calls for bow-anarrow accuracy.” Ok, you can play Glaze on your second day of vacation.
