Saturday Training Rides and Cross Baby!

November 6, 2007

Friends,

Good morning. What nice weather we are having here! This coming weekend should be awesome.

This is a reminder that the MOB Saturday training rides begin this week. This road ride will leave the shop at 11 am and return around two in the afternoon. The rides will be led by MOB cycling team members and the average speed will be 17 mph. We are really looking forward to beginning these rides this year. This is a great way to keep those pedals turning over in the cooler months when motivation can sometimes wane a little bit. These rides are at a good steady 17 mph for three hours so come prepared, but certainly no one will be dropped. We are looking forward to seeing you all for a ride this Saturday.

For those of you interested in mixing it up a little bit this time of year, head on down to Southern Pines on Sunday for round four of the NC Cyclocross series! We are right in the middle of cross season and it is so fun. The MOB Cross Syndicate is having a blast this year and coming up with some good results in the process (but most importantly having a good time). You can keep up with the action here: http://www.nccyclocross.com/. The members of the syndicate are: Chip Duckett, Charles von Isenburg, Darryl Rains, Chris Ramm, Jared Roy, Jay Cox, Bill Stein, and Mark Jordan. Keep an eye on these fine fellows; for this is a special group indeed! So, again, the series heads to Southern Pines this weekend, followed by the NC UCI event in Hendersonville the next. If you have time on Sunday, come on out to the cross race. There is a category for everyone and the racing is very spectator friendly. This is truly a great way to spend an autumn afternoon. Hopefully we will see some MOBers out over the next few weeks!

Thanks and we’ll see you soon!
