Are you ready to RIDE??!!

Our Wednesday Group Road Rides will resume on Wednesday, March 11th at 5:30pm at the bike shop. 
 
This year, we will try to have a 5 mile warm-up before any attacks begin.  This will give riders a chance to warm-up and actually try to hang with the main group.   So, let's take it easy for the first 5 miles and then you can ride your heart out.  We don't expect everyone to stay together but we just want to give everyone a chance at staying with the "fast ones". 
 
We are also considering having a "Time Trial" Night, more information to follow.  Any suggestions or recommendations are welcomed.
 
We will also have casual rides on the Greenway beginning in April.  Mountain bikes or hybrids will be needed for these rides. 
 
We are exciting about road riding season and spring is right around the corner.  Get those bikes dusted off and ready to ride!  We are offering $5.00 off any tune-up packages. 
 
Look forward to seeing everyone soon!!!!
