Gearing Up for the Women’s Bicycle Clinic

July 21st, 2009 · 1 Comment

This weekend,  Team PossAbilities will be hosting it’s first ever women’s bicycle clinic.  This clinic is the brainchild of one of my teammates, Wendy, who is passionate about helping women get started in cycling.  It’s always a curious question about how women get started in cycling, I started riding in high school, but I didn’t get serious about it till some friends invited me to join the collegiate bike team.  Anyway… we have 75 women confirmed for the clinic this weekend!! 75. Mostly local women! Holy Cow!! That’s a lot of women.   And, about 2/3 of the women are brand new to cycling and riding in groups!  That’s really encouraging for cycling and for women’s racing.

On schedule for these women will include on the bike instruction taught by professional women bike racers, off the bike lectures on nutrition, training, massage, core work, and bike maintenance.

Our community has really come together to support us in this event.   We have had food donated from all over town!  We will be eating like queens for those two days and I can’t wait!  The sponsors have also been amazingly generous as we’ve had donations from Redlands Cylcery who has provided us with one of my all time favorites : Recoverite from Hammer Nutrition, Action Wipes, Sage Rountree, Reps for Life, Sambazon, Owater, Mission Skincare, CVS Pharmacy, Voler, Sheila Moon and I don’t know what else!!

My teammates and I met at my house today to stuff the bags and here is just a glimpse of what the participants will be getting!
