And the winners of the Silent Sports/Canoecopia prize drawing are ...
Congratulations are due to the winners of Silent Sports' prize drawing conducted at Canoecopia, the paddlesports expo in Madison, Wisconsin, March 9-11. More than 400 people entered to win a Bending Branches wood canoe paddle, made in Osceola, Wisconsin, and a selection of books on biking, hiking and skiing in the upper Midwest.
The paddle was won by Dave Clemens, a long-time reader of the magazine, in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin. Sharing the books -- titles, authors and an illustrator of which we've featured in Silent Sports -- will be shared by John Ryder of Sparta, Wisconsin, and David Olson of Cambridge, Illinois.
I recommend the books in the drawing:
Walking Trails of Southern Wisconsin by Bob Crawford
Optimal Cross-Country Ski Training by Lee Borowski
Across America by Bicycle by Alice Honeywell and Bobbi Montgomery
Road Biking Michigan by Cari Noga
Bicycle Vacation Guide: Minnesota & Wisconsin by Doug Shidell and Vicky Vogels
Roadie: The Misunderstood World of a Bike Racer by Jamie Smith, illustrated by Jef Mallett
