Heart Healthy Pedal Push/Amended Training Ride Schedule

October 30, 2007

Friends,

Good morning! I hope you are all well and enjoying this nice autumn weather. Thanks to everyone who came out for the final weekend of Mocktoberfest. A lot of fun was had by all and we are already looking forward to next year! You can view pictures from the third sort of annual “Cyclocross Jamboree” at https://mockorangebikes.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=13.

This coming Saturday, November 3 is the High Point Regional Health System Heart Healthy Pedal Push! This is a great ride that begins and ends at the Fitness Center at High Point Regional Health System. Rodney Simpson, an esteemed member of the MOB Cycling Team, has worked very hard to promote and put on this ride this year, so it is going to be great. There is a 30 mile and a 50 mile option, both beginning and ending at the Fitness Center which is located at 601 N. Elm Street in High Point. The ride begins at 9:30 am and will be held rain or shine. You can register online at www.givetohighpointregional.com or www.active.com. If you have any questions about this great ride call or come by the shop. This ride will serve as the MOB training ride for this week, so head on over to High Point on Saturday morning for the Pedal Push!

Speaking of the MOB training rides, we have amended the schedule a little bit. The training rides moving forward through the cooler months will be on Saturday at 11 am. Due to schedule conflicts with other events (the NC Cyclocross series for one, www.nccyclocross.com) Saturdays, rather than Sundays, seem to be a little more agreeable for the MOB road rides. So the rides have been moved to Saturday, beginning Saturday, November 10, at 11 am. These will three to four hour training rides in the 16-19 mph range, and will be led by members of the MOB Cycling team. When the weather is cool out there, there is nothing like a group of like-minded folks to help the motivation. So again, beginning Saturday November 10 the winter training rides will begin at 11 am. We’ll see you then!

Thanks and have a great day!
