Our thoughts are with John Allen

Hey Guys/Gals, great showing the other day at the Grafton Pond Race.  Racers were faced with a technical course and oppressive heat conditions to endure.  The pond was a welcome sight at the end of the race.  Congrats to Brett for his first win of the season.   Also one of our team mates, John Allen, was involved in a serious crash which resulted in John being taken to the hospital.  John has multiple fractures in his hand and wrist.  He will require surgery, please keep John in your thoughts as we wish him a speedy recovery.

Get well soon, John!

THURSDAY IN SHENIPSIT!!

Hi everyone!

For this Thursday's mountain bike ride, we are going to be heading into Shenipsit for a bit of a change of pace.

Royce is going to be leading the ride.  Thanks, Royce!

We will plan on meeting at 5:15ish and rolling into the woods at 5:30.  We'll gather at the Gulf Rd. parking lot and ride from there.  Which is on the bottom of the Soap Stone access road.

NO MOUNTAIN BIKE RIDE TONIGHT!

Hi everyone!  It looks like the rain is going to continue today.  Although we aren't afraid to ride the woods in the rain, we are going to take tonight off and not ride.  We need to make sure that we are helping to preserve and maintain the trail systems and taking a group through rain soaked trails will only beat up the trails too much.  Take the night off and we'll see you all soon.

TONIGHT'S RIDES CANCELLED!

I hate to say it, but the weather is looking too crummy for the group rides.  Rest up and we'll see you all next week!

Stay dry!

JUNE ROUTES POSTED!!

Hey everyone!  Hope you all had a great weekend.  Without further ado, here are the routes for June!  With June comes extra daylight and with extra daylight comes more time on the bike and more time on the bike means only one thing...  HILLS!!!  Put your climbing shoes on, because all three groups are going UP!

We didn't have a chance to mark the route on the roads, so it is VERY important that everyone get to know these routes prior to tomorrow.  We will mark them as soon as we can, but for now everyone should work together to stay on the route.

See below for the routes and we're looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow night!
