Introducing....................................................







Puma Farka Cycling Club




It is a pretty long story as to why my new shop decided on this name. Let's just say that it is in honor of one of the greatest mechanics you have ever met in you lives. He smoked a lot, could not speak much english and he was very short so he could not test ride any of the adult bikes that he built or repaired. He was hired on the spot because of his heavy accent. Our old boss thought that if the Emperor of the East, Miroslav, was such a mechanical wizz, Puma would be even greater since he had much more broken english. The rest is a long story that we should go over with a bottle of heavy red wine and some smoked ham.  So we are gathering several times a week to ride and punish our old bodies and from now on we will do it in his honor. Come join us if you feel like it and if not we really don't care.


We ride on Tuesdays 6:30 a.m Road

Wednesdays Trapper and I are doing Cyclocross training  630am


Fridays we have another road ride at 7 am.



Sundays we ride out to Batavia and back as fast as possible so we can spend more time at the coffee shop.



Join as if you like. You are required to have a Puma certified bicycle, a helmet and a complete set of vise-grips at home or in your repair kit.

  1. I second that notion. Unless of course you hate me. I also noticed you are riding a lot in the sunlight. Oh the shame.

    Yours forever,
