Cyclocross at SECCA! 10/5/08

September 25, 2008

Hello Friends,

We hope everyone is doing well today and enjoying this nice weather! We’ve got lots of news this week.

As you all already know, Take A Kid Mountain Biking Day is October 4. We will be celebrating at the Children’s Home in Winston-Salem. After the main part of the day at The Children’s Home, a “Big Kids” ride will leave the shop at 3:30 to head over to Salem Lake. This mountain bike ride is for the young and the young at heart, so come join the MOB crew for a sweet afternoon MTB ride at 3:30 after the TAKMBD celebration! The shop will close at 3:00 pm on October 4.

The following day, Mock Orange Bikes is pleased to announce the second race in the “Can’t Wait for Cross Season” series, “Cyclocross at SECCA” which will take place on Sunday, October 5 at the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art in Winston-Salem. If you are unfamiliar with SECCA, you are in for a treat on October 5. Once a residence, the building is now a wonderful museum of fine art, and the surrounding grounds will provide the perfect setting for a great cyclocross race! Racing action begins at 9:30 am, and will continue into the afternoon. Kona Bike Company will be in attendance, so that always makes for a good time. There will be a beverage tent on-site as well. Racers can register the day of the event or pre-register online at www.pre-reg.com. And of course there is no registration process involved for spectators! Be sure to join in the fun at “Cyclocross at SECCA” on October 5! SECCA is located at 750 Marguerite Drive, Winston-Salem, NC 27106. Call the shop at (336) 722-6678 for more information.

Also on October 5, following the Cyclocross event, Kona and Mock Orange will once again be hosting a Dirt Demo Day. This is another opportunity to test out some nice Kona mountain bikes on some off-road terrain. This event will take place at SECCA following the cross race that afternoon. Come join Kona and the MOB for some sweet mountain biking action after the cross race on the 5th of October!

The Saturday morning MOB MTB ride will be at its normal time of 9:30 on Saturday morning this week. The Monday night Advanced MTB ride will meet over at Hobby Park this week in the parking lot at 6:30 pm. The beginner mountain bike ride led by Erika von Isenburg will meet at 6 pm on Tuesday night at the visitor’s center at Tanglewood Park in Clemmons. The “Tuesday Night Special” road ride will also be leaving at its normal time of 6 pm from the shop on Tuesday as well.

Thanks!
