The season is well underway and we've been having wonderful rides.  Come on out to the Village Bike Shop Cascade and join us for an entry level bike ride every Wednesday evening.  Whatever your ability or equipment, you are welcome.  Ladies come with all types of bikes (comfort, mountain, road) and all types of experience (lycra optional). Typically we have two groups--one group heading out on a 10-12 mile ride at 10-12 mph pace and another going 20-25 at a bit faster pace.  This is a ride for ladies who just want to get out and have some fun and not be left in the dust. We'll learn riding technique, get comfortable with riding the roads and just have some fun. Everyone is welcome!  We do ask that your bike is in good working order and that you carry an extra tube for your tire in case of a flat.  We also require you wear an ANSI/SNELL approved helmet.

Don't miss our Ride with the Girls Fall Leelanau Tour, September 18-19.  We'll ride (you choose 20, 30, or 40+ miles), shop, dine out, visit some wineries, and RELAX!   Click on Meetups, then Calendar, then September 18 for more information.  Don't miss it!

 

Please take a minute to view and fill our our Participation Form.  Please bring the completed form to your first ride with us.  You can view and print the form by clicking on the "More" tab, then "files" tab located at the top of the page or follow this URL:  http://www.meetup.com/ridewithgirls/files/
