Anyone up for a ride?

April 24, 2007

Hello friends. Hope everyone is enjoying this nice spring weather we’re having here in the piedmont of North Carolina. We wanted to let you all know about some key bike rides that the Mock Orange has going this week.

As today is Tuesday, the “Tuesday Night Special” will leave the shop at its normal time of 6 pm (ish). So, come on out and enjoy some biking around town this evening. If you rode really hard over the weekend, this is a great recovery. If you are just getting back into biking, this is a great ride. The ride itself is a 15 – 17 miler in and around Winston-Salem. The pace is extremely casual. So, come on out for some biking this evening!

The MOB Women’s Ride will return to the road this week. This ride is great for women who like to ride road bikes. Less training, more fresh air is what this ride is all about. Meet at the shop at 12 noon.

Also, the Saturday morning ride this week promises to be really nice. We will leave the shop at the normal time of 10 am, head out to Germanton via Baux Mountain Road, and do a nice loop out on the north side of town. This ride this week will probably end up being a three and a half hour ride, close to 60 miles in length, at a casual and enjoyable pace. The weather should be awesome, so put this one on your calendar for this weekend.

This Saturday is going to be extra fun because at 2:45 pm a super sweet mountain bike ride will be leaving from the shop. This ride will transpire at Hobby Park in Winston-Salem. So, meet at the shop at 2:45 if you need to follow someone to Hobby, or meet at Hobby at 3:00. This ride will surely be a blast because the MOB MTB crew really likes the dirt. So take care of your errands or housework in the morning and head over to Hobby Park for some great singletrack action.

Thanks, and we’ll see you soon for a bike ride!
