Hello cyclists,
- We gave a huge kudos to Amy West who got 7th in the Cross Country and 9th in the Short Track at USA Cycling Collegiate Mountain Bike Nationals. Sic 'em Amy! We're proud of you!
- The 24 Hour Ride will be Thursday 11/19 - Friday 11/20 at Daniel Fountain Plaza across from Fountain Mall. It's going to be a huge event and lots of fun! Plus, let's not forget that we're riding to benefit the Jon Pursley Victim Fund. At the next meeting (11/10) we'll be signing up for shifts to ride and going over final details. Also I'll be sending out a copy of the event flyer some time in the next week - start posting them everywhere!
- The Waco Women on Wheels Mountain Bike Clinic is coming up (11/6-11/7) in Cameron Park. We'll have the opportunity to volunteer as a team to help out at the clinic, meet some mountain biking pros, see some sweet bikes, and earn service points. More details to come.
- Upcoming Rides:
- Thursday 4:30 - easy ride leaving from Fountain Mall
- Saturday
- 9:00 - Jon-Howard is leading a long fast ride leaving from Fountain Mall. Contact him if you're interested
- 11:30 - GUT PACK RIDE leaving from Fountain Mall. Short group ride to VITEKS FOR GUT PACKS! We'll meet up with those who went on the long ride at Viteks a little before 12. Yes, there's a Baylor game but we can watch it at Viteks and 'tailgate' there. Wear your Baylor jersey! (please remember to bring $$$ to buy food at Viteks!)
- Those who ordered team performance fleeces at the meeting I'll be sending you another email with more specific details.
- ***I just received an email from the person in charge of Beardowns. They've eliminated the rule restricting us from having only 2 cycling members per team. They want us out in full force to kick butt and take names. Anyone interested? The event will be next Wednesday. Registration ends Monday.
Although cycling is slow this time of year I can assure you it will pick up quickly in the spring. In the mean time, put some base miles under your butt, serve others through volunteering and riding at the 24 Hour Ride, and get to know your team mates! I haven't seen several of you for a while - please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
