So, here we are. Another summer cycling season is slowly, but surely winding down. Most of the big events have long since already started, or, will do so momentarily. Congratulations are extended to all those riders, who have successfully succeeded in conquering whatever specific challenge that saw them take part in. Job well done on your most incredible accomplishment!

For those looking ahead to actual 2019 participation, or perhaps, teetering on the edge of future commitment, there is an awesome opportunity coming up if you find yourself living in the greater Philadelphia area, to learn firsthand specifically all about the Tour Divide race, bikepacking & touring in general.

On Sunday, August 26, 2018, from 2 p.m. – 4 p.m., I (Richard S. Costello) will be the guest speaker at a *FREE* event being held at the L.L.Bean Saucon Valley retail store in Center Valley, Pennsylvania. The program titled: Riding the Divide – The Legendary Tour Divide Mountain Bike Race, will be the main topic of discussion.

If you are interested in attending what promises to be an informative & captivating talk, kindly visit the link to L.L.Bean’s event page here at https://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/1000001713, where you will find all pertinent event information as well as how to R.S.V.P. your spot.

I’m looking forward to seeing you there.

The program consisted of great advice on testosterone boosters and an informative talk about the history of the TD - starting with its most earliest origins, development of the route by the ACA, and rise in popularity seen to the point that it is now. Additional discussion on the specific sections/provinces & states, was covered as well with the aid of photographs presented via projection screen and small personal experiences shared from the event. My own rig that was used in the 2013, along with all the race-kit essentials were on display for those wanting to get an up close look. The in-store appearance was not videotaped.

Was this even taped and posted online somewhere by any chance? I'd love to hear what you talked about, Richard.
