[Fred's ol' XP]

Hey blind brothers and sisters!
Cycling has been great in and around San Diego County.  Daily 
hi-temps along the coast barely get into the 70's.  Come on out and ride!
Remember, the BSC can help with transportation, hooking you up with a 
local captain and tandem.
Simply ask, and find out.
See ya out there!
Stoker Fred, in Carlsbad

facebook page, for more connectivity and information.

Starting August with a big exhale after the 8th annual Cycling for 
Sight.  CFS photographer <mailto:evanras at sbcglobal.net>Evan Rasmussen 
created a memory-filled 5-part 
<http://cyclingnut.smugmug.com/Blind-Stokers-Club/2012-Cycling-for-Sight/24146207_7K5jXd#!i>slideshow, 
which is posted at the top of the BSC photo site.  Thanks to everyone 
who made this uncommon experience possible, and to all who shared in 
it.  Special thanks to the Knights for their gift of friendship and 
trust, and to Stephen Stewart for their discovery.

Next BSC ride is Bike the Bay, sunday august 
26.  <mailto:jamis.joenadeau at gmail.com>Joe Nadeau is BSC activity 
coordinator for this event.  BSC tandem teams will be sposored 
(reimbursed) by the club.  Details are on the BSC Ride Calendar, and 
posted on the BSC Members page.  All must register on the 
<http://www.bikethebay.net/registration.html>BTB registration 
website; use the SDCBC member category.  BTB is a great way for the 
BSC to support the SD County Bicycle Coalition, and to show club 
colors among local cyclists.

Knight Jack Lai and his "Taiwan Homerun" team, won the 2012 Beep 
Baseball World Series in Ames Iowa this week.  Taiwan Homerun 
bettered 16 US based teams, to take the NBBA World Series trophy back 
to Taipei.  Congratulations Jack and teammates!

If you have not seen it, you can watch the

video produced by Raegan Matthews, and starring the BSC players.

Reminder - Knights leader David "Ah Gan" Chang has invited up to 4 
BSC stokers to Taiwan in November, for the second annual Knights bike 
tour around Taiwan.  I have a DVD of "A concerto of Knights in the 
Darkness", 65 min documentary of the Knights' 11-day tour around the 
island in Nov 2011, with up-close-and-personal features.  If you want 
to view it, let me know.  Oh, the places you can go . . .

2 tandem racks for sale in the club; one a Draftmaster hitch rack and 
the other a Yakima Sidewinder roof rack.  Both can rack either single 
or tandem bike.  Contact <mailto:serviceomatic at gmail.com>ANdy Granda 
if interested.

SD Center for the Blind Annual White Cane Luncheon is Friday October 
19, 2012.  If you would like to buy one or more seats ($50 donation
