THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME

On May 27th, we made a return to the place we call home, Central Machine Works. We’re still trying to wake up from the dream where hundreds of y’all made the big gravel parking lot feel small for the first time ever. It was a ride unlike anything else or anywhere else, and a ride we don’t plan on getting off of anytime soon.

Gone West is a crowd favorite when it comes to classic BC routes, but this one just felt even more special. We’ve never seen the hills of Austin more packed with friends from near and far, surfing wheels and celebrating with International Cycling Club at a hilltop parking lot party. Sour Patch Kids, potato chips, electrolytes and more were just what the doctor ordered after a SPICY trip to the top of Barton Creek.

Breakfast on the horizon, some of y’all raced up Marly for one last explosive effort, while the rest raced back to town for an early spot in the CMW beer line. If you ask us, the latter was the better option.

We’ve been proud many times but this time especially, we’re proud that our D group was the largest it’s ever been. 60 people took on Walnut Creek Trail with no other goal than to ride bikes with others. Breakfast Club has never been about the distance, the speed, or the watts. It has always been about friendship, and will always continue to be.

And lest we forget, DJ GrossYall showed up ready to PARTY, spinning the tunes both pre and post ride. That was the true icing on the cake.

New hats, new bottles, and the first ever STICKER CLUB dropped on site at Central Machine works, and if you missed the hats, you’ll have to stay tuned for the next round because we SOLD OUT.

We said it last month yet we’re here saying it again… this was our BIGGEST (and best?) ride to date. Welcome to Breakfast Club.
