Cyclofemme - May 13 - 14

Join us Saturday, May 13 for a relaxing 23 mile roll along rural roads just East of Montgomery. We will meet at the historic John Hall Grocery located at 15668 Vaughn Rd, Cecil, Alabama at 9AM. This will be a slow rolling, no-drop ride followed by a delicious BBQ lunch afterwards for those who can stay.
Join us this Mother's Day as we pedal together along the historical streets of downtown Montgomery and its surrounding neighbourhoods. It will be a fun filled afternoon of riding and music! As we join the worldwide CycloFemme celebration-empowering ourselves and one another- we will have the added benefit of sharing that same opportunity with girls in Africa by raising funds and awareness for World Bicycle Relief.

Traffic Skills 101 Class - May 30, June 1, & 3 (3 session class)
** CANCELLED ** Please watch for new class dates for Fall of 2017!

The course is designed for novice to intermediate adult cyclists who want to improve their bike handling skills and become more proficient riding in traffic. However, all skill levels can benefit from the skill drills and class discussions on safety, basic mechanical techniques, traffic situations, emergency procedures, tire changing techniques, and hazard avoidance. The course is fun, challenging, and full of "need to know" information to ride confidently in all traffic situations.
