Bogey's Fantasy Golf 2012

I'm ahead of the game this year and have the schedule figured out already.  Baring unforeseen circumstances, we'll start with the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines (used to be sponsored by Buick) on January 26 and end with the Frys.com Open at CordeValle on Oct 11.  I'll post the full schedule next and will have copies for those who want them.

November and December rides

Haven't posted for ages but thought I should mention I rode the Glide fairly regularly in both November and December so I'm now at 20 years plus of at least one ride every calendar month in Minnesota.  So far the weather has not even made riding a challenge.  I expect that may change in January but the current forecast should allow a ride next week so only February will pose a possible problem.

We're DONE!!!

That's it, folks.  Another year of Fantasy Golf put to rest.  Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.  Also, hope you all come back in January or February and recruit some more players.

Results from McGladrey

Webb couldn't quite pull it off for me.  That makes 2 out of the last 4 years that came down to the last hole in the last tournament that I could have moved to first.  Oh, well.  Great fun anyway.
