I was there with the Fun Patrol again this past Saturday, and it was a great night! The bout began at 6:30, and consisted of two 30-minute... Continue reading →

Princeton Valley Cyclocross Race Pictures As the days grow shorter and the weather becomes less bike friendly, many road riders in and around Eau Claire switch to riding the terrific mountain bike trails at Lowes Creek and Northwest Parks.

I may not have scored very high in my game, but Wagner's Lanes... Continue reading →

Hickory Hills Pavilion Opening!

The Hickory HillsThe Hickory Hills Pavilion Opening was a lovely event, even if the weather was uncooperative. Everyone I talked to was kind and hospitable and answered any questions I had. The appetizers were delicious; I ended up going back for seconds. The pavilion itself was gorgeous. It had an old European city feel, yet was still contemporary. It also fit a lot of people, including a band. My fellow Fun Finders... Continue reading →
