Check out the above map and the link to the Blue Mounds trails near
Madison, WI.   Jeff mentioned taking a ride up here and it sounds
pretty good (2.5' drops......)

Maybe we could string together a 2 day ride over an upcoming weekend
and go explore this along with Devil's Head (Merrimac, WI)??

SITE>>> http://cambr.org/SMF/index.php?topic=391.msg1409#msg1409

We had something planned for mid to late June so maybe this is the
ticket?

Thoughts....suggestions.......

These folks do most of their business via the internet, selling from their
web site at href="http://www.airborne.net/">
http://www.airborne.net, but they also have this storefront location
at 1010 Stewart Street. Jamie Raddin, a bike biz vet of more than a
decade, runs the show. Products include titanium road and mountain bikes,
titanium road and mountain frames, components - stems, seat posts, saddles,
and bar ends - and apparel - jerseys, shirts, hats, and shorts. They can
put a custom bike together in anywhere from a day to three days.

The web site - which they did totally in-house - is worth a visit even
if you aren't in the market for a new titanium bicycle.

Hours of the retail "concept store" are Monday through Saturday from
9 AM to 5 PM.

Scram! Couriers, LLC

Madison's only bicycle messenger service!

Not really a shop, but a local bike-related commercial
operation.

We have been in business since June 2nd, work Monday
through Friday, 8:00 AM to
5:00 PM, riding packages around the Isthmus, as far as
Midvale Blvd. and Aberg Ave.

There are 11 couriers who work as independent
contractors. I work as dispatcher,
taking calls and contacting the couriers via two-way
radios. Apparently we are the first
bike messenger service in Madison since 1987, and
possibly the largest.
