Participation continues to increase. This year, we had 20 riders and another 10 folks who hung around Cheaha. For the 3rd Skyway Beer Run, we returned to the 'uphill' version and rode from Sylaward to Cheaha. We've moved the date up in the calendar even further and settled on February for all future Beer Runs. Since some have started coming up to Cheaha earlier and earlier in the week each year in order to enjoy some additional outdoor vacation time, we've settled on the first Wednesday through Sunday that follows Valentine's Day, with the big ride being on the Saturday during that period. This year, the folks who were there on Thursday drove up to the northern half of the Talladega National Forest and rode a big loop on the horse trails near Coleman Lake. This will become a regular part of the Skyway Beer Run event in the future. Once again, this year the weather was excellent.
