A final reminder to the RABA Community and beyond - there is a bike swap organized by the club and the Richmond Triathlon Club on Saturday, Sept 6, 9 am to 12 noon, at the Dorey Park Farmers Market, 2999 Darbytown Rd, Henrico, VA. The sellers have lots of gently used or good to very good conditioned bikes and bike-related "treasures". And the Farmers Market has lots of great vendors and live music on that day. Check it out, especially if you finish your ride early or aren't planning to ride that morning -- (fb)
