Weekly Roundup August 17-23

Have you heard of the Triangle 200k?

The Triangle 200k is hosted by Durham Courier (rip) and will be on Sunday September 27th. This year marks the 10th year of the race. We use the word "race" very lightly. The race is 200km of roads, greenways, cuts, and corners around the triangle. Riders will start in Durham at Duke Park and head to Raleigh, then Chapel Hill, ending right back at Duke Park for a grill out. Registration is $5 and begins at 6:00am, departure will be at 7:00am.

This is a great opportunity to tour the triangle by bike. There is no official pace and you will be fully self-supported. Riding in a group is always helpful.

If you have any questions about the Triangle 200k reach out, we'd love to chat about it.

What's on the schedule for this week?

Thursday 08/20 - Dawn MTB Ride with TORC + GGC 7am at Centennial Middle School

Meet at 7am at the Centennial Campus Middle School. We will meet at the trail head and do a loop. Each loop at Lake Raleigh Woods is about a mile long so there will be opportunities to collect riders and do multiple laps or potentially to leave after any loop, depending on the ability level and time available to individual riders on each ride.

08/21 - Open Mic Night 7pm at TBL Cafe

Join TBL every third Friday of the month for an evening of creativity and community! Whether you’re a musician, poet, storyteller, or just want to cheer others on, everyone’s welcome. Bring your talent (or your friends) and enjoy a relaxed night of local voices, good vibes, and connection at our storefront space. Doors open at 6:30pm, open mic from 7-9pm.
