Mr. Q's Corner

President Ron QToday’s club ride took place on a beautiful sunny day, one that we haven’t seen in a couple of months.  The start location for the club ride was Shaw and Academy, a popular starting location for many cyclists heading up Wild Cat, Maxon, Doyal’s or to Trimmer and beyond.

Richard, the owner of the recently opened Red Caboose Restaurant, came out and voiced some concern about the parking lot being full of vehicles, limiting parking to his business and a couple of other new business recently opened.  The majority of the cars parked there today belonged to bicycle riders.

I would estimate 17 of the cars parked there today were FCC club members participating in Nick Palidino’s ride while the rest were other groups of cyclist and individuals using the parking lot as a starting point for their ride up into the hills.  This is beginning to be a problem for the businesses out there.  FCC would like to work with the businesses at Shaw and Academy and come to some amicable solution to the problem, especially on weekends.

Now this is important: Richard has asked that we not park in the first two rows in front of the restaurant and the other businesses adjacent to the restaurant.  Park in the spaces next to Academy Avenue.  There is also available parking in the enclosed area behind the restaurant and behind Johnny Quick.  It would be a shame to be banned from using any part of the parking lot if this continues to be a problem for the local businesses.

Ronald Quitoriano, FCC President
