Corinth Cycling Club

 

 

Bob Troyer - Cup O' Joe Ride Manager

 

 

 

Place of birth?

Goshen, Indiana

 

What’s your Club nickname?

RDTronics, but I should probably acquire another.  TravelNMan16 and bobbyd are names I go by on several poker sites. Maybe I’ll use one of those.

 

What got you interested in cycling?

Wife bought me a bike and encouraged me to ride for health reasons.

 

How long have you been cycling?

About two years now, after a hiatus of over 40 years. I have been riding with CCC for  1.5  of those two years.

 

What is your primary bike?

Trek 7100

 

What is your favorite thing about the Corinth Cycling Club?

The people. I have learned more from other riders than from any other source. Every ride is full of humor and great conversation. We are always in the moment not worried about yesterday or tomorrow, just the ride.

 

What is your favorite meal after a long day in the saddle?

A good steak

 

Favorite Lake Cities business?

Living across the lake in Lewisville I don’t do much but ride in the Lake Cities. I guess I would say IHOP since I often eat breakfast there before the Saturday ride. Of course I have to say Starbucks too since that is integral to the Cup O’ Joe.

 

If you could ride your bike anywhere in the world, where would it be?

Now that is a tough one. I have never been to Hawaii so that sounds good. But then there is Israel, Greece, Spain, Croatia, etc. all of which I have been to with some beautiful riding possibilities.

 

What is your favorite thing about the Corinth Cycling Club?

The variety of rides available is what first brought me across the lake.

 

Anything you want to share with folks considering riding with your group?

We have a great time together.
