What happens when a beloved cycling tradition comes to an unexpected end? Let's reminisce about the Ride the Rockies, a cherished Colorado cycling event that has left us with both fond memories and unfulfilled dreams. As we ponder the fading glory of this iconic ride, we cast our eyes on the Bourbon Burn, a ride that may soon face a similar fate. With its charming camp atmosphere and distillery visits, we find ourselves planning one last hurrah, embracing the chance to savor those special moments for possibly the final time.
From the world of cycling to the evolving trends that shape it, we draw fascinating parallels between the resurgence of bourbon and whiskey and the shifts occurring within cycling culture. Traditional events may struggle to capture the interest of today's youth unless they innovate. By incorporating entertainment and modern amenities, there's a promise of keeping the spirit of cycling alive and engaging. Personal stories from the photography industry underline how critical adaptation is in preventing missed opportunities.
Join us as we highlight the creative talents of a cyclist and artist known for his unique bicycle and bird portraits, and extend our heartfelt thanks to Franklin Johnson of BRAG for his invaluable support. We're thrilled to share insights into the upcoming 2025 BRAG event, and the early registration perks. With our teams, Men and Women of Leisure, gearing up for special activities, there's much excitement ahead. Prepare for a journey filled with nostalgia, exciting travel plans, and the camaraderie that cycling brings, all wrapped up with a humorous take on self-checkout frustrations in retail.

We will be back
