This note from Rickey Taylor of Waco (fwd from Bob McClure):
My name is Rickey Taylor and I currently serve as Vice-President of
the Waco Bicycle Club. Every year our club members work closely with
the WWW100 Board of Directors to put on one of the best Bicycle Tours
in Texas. As in previous years, our WBC members are helping to
promote, prepare, and provide assistance with the Waco Wild West
Century Bicycle Tour. This is the 26th year that our club has been
involved with this event. Please help us this year by passing the
information below on to your membership. Also, if you have an event
calander please post the date below for the ride.
