Dirty Lemming 2023 - We're Back!!!

Greetings Fellow Lemmings,

The Dirty Lemming gravel ride is back for 2023.     

Deb Lind and her husband Gary will be hosting the event with a start/finish at their farm near Brownton, MN.    Coincidently their farm was on the 100 mile route and for a couple of years they put out a cooler with waters and occasionally a bottle of something a bit stronger.   

Deb and Gary have a really cool barn that is set up for cycling parties with a biker bar and small stage.   

Given the additional distance to the start Deb and Gary will also be setting up for camping at their farm for those coming from out of town. Water and Porta-Potty will be available for the ride and camping. 

Please coordinate camping details in advance with Deb via email.  cuz4bianchi@gmail.com

If you have musical talent, either voice or some type of instrument, BRING IT.   A post ride barn jam session would be fun.

No Dirty Lemming in 2022

Hi,

Sorry for the misdirection, but we will not be having a dirty lemming ride in 2022.   With our move to Colorado and some aging parent issues putting on even a simple bike ride seems like too much to handle this summer.

Not sure if we'll be reviving it again in 2023 and if we do whether it will be in MN or CO where we are now living.   Watch this space for more info.

If you have any questions let me know.

Pictures

 Here are some of the pictures from Saturday.     Much thanks to Mary Mulenburg who sent me some great pictures of riders going past their home.   

If you have any pictures you would like to share send them to me.   jim@dirtylemming.com
