Hello All,

 

We had a very good turnout for the Friday Ride and the Brunch in The Organic Food and Café in Satwa.

 

Despite the heat we had over 70 riders for the ride and 30 participants at the brunch.

 

For those who ordered pictures from the Coast to Coast ride we do have the CDs with the Pictures ready for collection in the shop.

 

 BEGINNERS NIGHT on the first Sunday of each month in Nad Al Sheba (please see the map attached)

 

The idea is to introduce people to riding in a group and to get new people into the sport. We will start Sunday 04.06.06 at 19.30 o clock in Nad Al Sheba.  (Please see the Red Cross on the map) You should have a racing bike, lights and a helmet to join the group ride. Distance approx. 20 to 40 km.

 

You need more power for the Friday Ride have a look at Power Wheels http://sheldonbrown.com/power_wheel.html

 

 

 

Many thanks to our SUPPORT DRIVERS last Friday – Chris, Dragan and Uwe most active support driver. It is very much appreciated by the whole group.

 

Thanks enjoy your training

 

Wolfi and Team

Please see the EMERGENCY CONTACT FORM which you can print and keep it on your bike (maybe in your saddle back) so that we know who to contact in case of an accident and who you are insured with.

 

You can send us a copy as well which we will keep in the support car.
