Club MeetingMonday, January 5th at 7 PMJoin GABA’s first
meeting of the year and hear about George and Cathy’s 3-week, 615-mile
self-contained bicycle tour of the Stewart/Cassiar Highway in the Yukon and
British Columbia. No electricity, no houses - just their trusty Bike
Fridays, and the bears, lakes, rivers, and creeks. Final tally: 14 Black
Bear, 4 Red Foxes, 1 Moose with baby, 1 wolf cub, and bunches of Bald
Eagles.

Rillito River Bike Path Temporarily Closed
The Pima County RFCD has closed the Rillito River Park north bank trail
between SWAN and CRAYCROFT for construction of drainage structures on the
trail. The path is expected to be closed to pedestrians and cyclists through
December, 2008. The path may reopen in January, but construction work along
this area will continue through February 2009. Please exercise caution and ride slowly if you choose to cycle through this area once it is open to traffic until the construction project is totally completed. The south bank trail will be open as an alternative route. Any questions should be directed to John Spiker, Project Manager with RFCD, at 243-1800.
