Wiskota Events

The 2020 season is upon us.  I finally bought a new bike, my kids are getting a little bit older and my wife owes me all kinds of free time.  And thus, I am proposing several new Team Wiskota events for this season.  Of course nothing can be set in stone, but I am putting them on the calendar and hoping for the best.  In addition, if you have an event idea or are willing to host something let me know and we can put it on the schedule.

Current Wiskota Event Schedule:

4/26: Liege-Bastogne-Liege Brunch at the Schmidt Haus.  Paris-Roubaix is on Easter Sunday this year and I will be gone.  So bumped the brunch back a few weeks for La Doyene.

5/29: Giro Festa al Fresco at Piazza San Schmidt.  An Italian feast the night before the final decisive Giro stage.  Perhaps a short ride after work and then a relaxing evening in my yard.  Weather dependent, alternative the Bloomington Olive Garden.

6/27: Le Tour Grand Depart Riviera Ride.  As the Tour begins on the french riviera we will take a leisurely cruise around the scenic South Minneapolis Riviera including the river road, Chain of Lakes, Minnehaha Creek and Falls as well as stops at Bread and Pickle, Sandcastle, my yard, and Sea Salt. 

7/14: Le Tour Viewing @Birchwood Cafe.  An oldy but a goody.  This stage on a Tuesday may not be accessible to all but it shouldnt be as busy and its a good stage. 

Spring Break 2022: Wiskota Holy Week Euro Trip.  Start saving now cause we going to Belgium for Flanders and Roubaix.  Let's do this!
