Join Team Velo Girls for week #1 of our progressive Cinderella Training Ride Series. We will offer two rides each weekend, one designed to get you ready for the traditional metric century ride, the other designed for the full century. Our first shorter ride will be Melo Velo, the longer Melo Velo plus an extra loop at the end. Each week we will add several miles to both options. This week, meet at Woodside Town Hall in Woodside @ 10:00am. RSVP to Cinderella@velogirls.com
Sat - Feb 13
10:00 AM		   Melo Velo Beginner's Road Ride
This is a ride for beginners. All riders are welcome for socializing and support, but this is an easy, beginner, getting-used-to-road-biking ride. You'll learn shifting, group riding (don't worry, we stay way behind each other) and how to drink from your water bottle while riding, in a very non-competitive environment. Meet at Woodside Town Hall in Woodside. We'll ride north on Canada Road and return -- 15 miles, mostly flat with little rollers. The first Saturday of the month will include a slightly longer option to test your legs. RSVP to Michelle at melovelo@velogirls.com
Sat - Feb 13
1:00 PM - 5:00 PM		   Bike Skills 101 (co-ed) -- Fundamental Bike Handling Skills sponsored by BicycleLawyer.com
This 4-hour clinic is the foundation of everything else you’ll learn on the bike. This is the clinic where we teach the old dogs new tricks and the newbies the fundamentals. You’ll learn about balance and weight distribution and how that affects your ability to ride your bike safely and confidently. We’ll learn skills like riding with no hands, emergency stops, and how to look behind you while holding your line, how to steer, and counter-steer. After just four hours, we guarantee you’ll be a better bike handler and have much more fun on the bike.
