VELO BEAR

Hello All!

I am still receiving more emails to be on the emailing list, but I’d let you know we are going on the first “WILL BIKE FOR FOODS” ride of this year.

We will be heading to local harvest cafe, located near Tower grove park. It is around 6 miles each way. Will go on the pace that is comfortable with everyone.

Let’s meet at noon, in front of Brookings hall. This Saturday September 15th. will leave from brookings 10mins after noon.

Please bring your helmet, money for your brunch, and your spirits!

SO EXCITED!!

Also I’d be happy to look over your bike if you need some minor fixes / oil lubrication. Oh How i Love lubricating chains… Just bring it over earlier than gathering time.

* For future rides, consider the ride cancelled if it rains or snows, unless you hear via email otherwise.

Beer Bikes ‘n BBQ is having our autumn ride on the River Front Trail Tuesday, November 1st. We are meeting at 4:30 at Urban Shark and after then meeting at the start of the Trail at 4:50. Contact Jon Roper at jroper2@slu.edu or 314.601.5308.

See you then

If you’re free this afternoon, Velo Bear recommends checking out the Gateway Cross Cup at Heman Park. There will be races and such going on until the evening, and it’ll be a cool way to see some cyclocross and meet fellow StL cyclists.
