Saturday Training Ride
Saturday Training Ride - 04/24/10 @ 7:30 AM
This Saturdays training ride will start at the trail head on Park Ave. You should be able to park on the gravel road right next to the trail. This ride will start at approximately 7:30 AM and head out towards Moffitt Lake. It will include some flats and a couple long hills. We will take it easy and go at a slower pace to keep everyone together and used to the route. We are looking at riding two loops or around 1 1/2 to 2 hours. If you don't want to ride that long, you will have an opportunity to drop after the first loop and head back to your car. There is no need to RSVP, just show up and be ready to ride.
We will try to get out an email by 7:00 AM if the ride is canceled due to weather.
Questions: Send an email to the VeloRosa google group or contact Natalie Schrader at nschrader@lightedge.com or call (515) 491-8485.

Thank You!
Hi VeloRosa Team!
Thanks everyone for joining us for a great training series of group riding and racing instruction from GO! Training instructor, Dave Mable. We couldn't have picked a better day to gather a few of our fellow cyclists together for our annual bike clinic at Union Park in Des Moines. First, Dave helped us learn more about group riding and gaining a better comfort level with riding wheel to wheel. Then, we went through a series of group drafting moves to continue building our comfort levels in a group situation.
Union Park was a great location and many of you will now have an opportunity and hopefully a better comfort level to join in some of the racing fun at the Race Like a Girl Series in the upcoming weeks. Great job to those that hung out after lunch for a couple of fun practice races!
By the end of day, we all improved our cycling skills and more importantly had so much fun learning more about ourselves and our bikes! Thanks again Dave for your awesome instruction and hope to see you all out riding with the your fellow team members very soon!
Thanks again!
