2007 Outdoor Training Ride Schedule


Here's the schedule for my outdoor training rides.  Please contact us via barry.w.lau@wellsfargo.com or phone (952-831-3753) with questions or if you want to RSVP (optional).

A safety speech will be given, and we will start riding 30 minutes after our meet time.

ITEMS TO BRING:  your bike in good condition, CPSC or ANSI or Snell or ASTM approved helmet (required), nutrition bars / food, water / electrolyte replacement drink, cash, photo id, insurance card, medical emergency info, coins or a cell phone for emergency calls, spare tubes, patch kit, bike pump, sunscreen lotion

OUR PHILOSOPHY:  We will try to ride together as a group, however, we understand everyone has their own pace.  Therefore, a route guide will be printed for everyone.  If you are faster or slower than the group overall, follow the route guide and meet us back at the starting point.
