Mike (mrprudhom) was one of the committee that organized the BikeJournal Reunion 2006. He single-handedly cooked burgers and brats for all of us on the Friday night, while remaining calm and cheerful. Many thanks for your help in making this weekend successful, Mike.

mrprudhom (Mike), Thanks for all that you did in making Reunion '06 such a success. I enjoyed riding with you and the rest of the "Magnificent Seven" and hope that we meet up again sometime in the near future and ride some more! I am going to get me some of those e-caps(thanks for sharing with me)
God bless you in all your endeavors. ~ TreknTeresa ~

History:

click to enlarge
I receive my first bike in over 20 years as part of Biketown Racine 2004. I rode it regularly since the beginning of August 2004. In my first year, I recorded 648.01 miles. In 2005 I attempted by first century, but bailed 75 miles into it (insufficient training). I made my 2005 mileage goal of 2005 outdoor miles.

I longed for more miles, and for a better bike to do it on. In April of 2008 I put the finishing touches on my new ride, a Waterford Adventure cycle. I look forward to a long and storied relationship with my new love (just don't let my wife know)

Hardtail XC Mountain bike
Description:  I received this bike from a friend who can no longer ride. It is a little small for me, but made a passable spare, and is OK on the trainer.

I recently gave this bike to a kid in my youth group. He was looking for a commuter bike, and he is a smaller kid, so it should work out fine for him.
