April Tech class Thursday the 28th

The next tech class will be on April 28th Thursday at 7pm. Remember it is free and all we ask is that you RSVP so we can plan on how many will be in attendance. If you need to learn how to change a flat or want to have some basic maintenance questions answered than this class is a must.

Easter Sunday ride

We hope all of you had a great Easter, sorry we were closed.
The 7am ride from Lutz Lake Fern on the Sun Coast was a success.
The turn out was great and I hope everybody enjoyed the challenge as much as we did. I have to admit that 84 miles is the longest one day ride for both Jodi and I and the wind on the return made it feel like it was 120 miles. We averaged 17-18 on the 42 miles north and 10-11 on the 42 back south. Special thanks to Suzi and Dennis for sticking it out with Jodi and I. Also want to say congrats to John for having the legs to make it back on his on way ahead of us. Keep up the good work!
We finshed the ride in 7 hours and 5 minutes. Longer than expected, but a great success considering the wind.

ok so we will do the urban next week the 10th

We got rained out Thursday the 3rd for our urban so we will reschedule for the 10th of March next Thursday. Please let us know if you have any questions. We will meet at the shop at 7pm or downtown at Bayshore and Platt at the Walgreens at 7:45pm. For those who do not know what an urban is we will ride downtown through the streets and parking garages as well as many other downtown locations. Urbans are a great way to learn how to ride in groups and get in sprints.
