Happy New Year Everybody!
Now that the holidays are over and we are all getting back into
the swing of things it's time to think about
2009 and upcoming events
and rides.
Speaking of rides with the predicted warm weather this weekend remember our good friends at
Bicycle Village sponsor the Saturday morning
ride. Meet at 9:15 am and depart 9:30 am.
In addition they also have
the
ongoing spin class at the YMCA if you'd rather do that. Meet at
Bicycle Village at 10:30 am and walk over to the YMCA for a 11:00
class. George is a great instructor and I've enjoyed many of his
classes already this winter---keep those legs in shape, Spring will be
here before you know it!
To encourage bike commuters to
give it a try in the winter months GO Boulder is having a
Winter Bike to Work
Day next Wednesday January 21.

The
January Monthly Meeting is
Tuesday January 27 at REI
in Boulder at 7:00 pm. This will be a very interactive meeting where we
will discuss the upcoming organized ride schedule for the year, the big
Pre Season Kickoff Party in February, organizing a team to ride in the
summer distance rides and a training schedule for those who want to
improve their riding capacity this year. In addition, Herschel from
Boulder Mountainbike Alliance will be there to discuss our new
affiliation with this great organization. Their work in regards to bike
advocacy and the Valmont park is super and we hope to lend them as much
support as we can as a club in 2009. Come on out and join us we want to
hear your ideas!
The
Pre Season Kickoff Party is indeed in the works and we hope to
be bigger and better then last year! Put this date on your calender -
Wednesday February 18th at Bicycle Villagefrom 6:00 to 9:00pm.
We will have food from Whole Foods, beer from our friends at Boulder Beer, lots of great prizes and plenty of cycling oriented booths.
Stay tuned for more information in upcoming emails. What better
way to kickoff the cycling year and meet like minded recreational
cyclists!
As you can see we hope to bring you more organized rides and
events this year and to do that we need your help. If your interested
in volunteering please contact me directly at donald@bouldercyclingclub.com. We look forward to a great year on the BIKE!
