Cool Bikes on the 4th of July

Here are a few pictures of some interesting bikes that I saw at the Centerville and Kaysville Independence Day parades.  

Honor Ride

Honor Ride, Park City

I received this e-mail today.  I'm posting it for anyone who might be interested.

My name is Dean Zenoni and I am the local cycling representative for Ride 2 Recovery and our Project Hero Salt Lake City chapter. Ride 2 Recovery is a 501 (c) 3 in partnership with the Military and VA volunteer Service office that uses cycling as the core activity to benefit mental and physical rehabilitation programs for our injured veterans and healing heroes.

We are hosting a 1 day Bicycle Fundraising Honor ride to benefit Ride 2 Recovery and our Project Hero Salt Lake City program on July 27, 2013 in Park City, Utah. 

We would love to have your cycling club join us on this day to ride or come out and volunteer.

I have attached the flyer for the ride. Please feel free to share this with your club members and anyone that is interested in cycling as well as supporting our injured veterans. If you have additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact me by phone at (801) 674-5223 or at this email.

You may also find more information about Ride 2 Recovery at www.ride2recovery.com

Just letting you know we have a special code for all our local clubs here in the area. Your riders can get $15 off, if they register by July 1. Here is the code: 15OFFPC

Time for new leadership

Wheelmen,

I have been doing a lot of thinking about the Wasatch Wheelmen lately.  After discussions with the other two "founders" we have decided that perhaps it is time to offer up the assets of the club to someone who is willing to take on the responsibility to move the club to the next level.   

For your information, here are our assets:

- We own www.wasatchwheelmen.org.   I have paid the fees for the domain name for this year.  

- We have the google group, the google site, google community, and the google e-mail for wastachwheelmen.

- We have a Facebook page

- We have a jersey and bibs designed with Blackbottoms that has the design fee of $100 paid for.   http://www.wasatchwheelmen.org/p/clothing.html 

- We have a twitter account

- We have a Strava club

- We have a Bike Journal.com club

If you are interested in taking on the leadership of this club, please let me know.  

Thanks,

Layne

Frank2Fred 2013

It looks like we have some interest in the Frand2Fred ride this September.

Tentatively we are planning to do the ride starting on Labor Day.

Please click on the Frank2Fred tab and check out the routes and comment on the plan.

Since we are in the early planning stages, we are still open to suggestions.

Biker's Edge Cinco de Mayo Century

Wheelmen,

This looks like a fun early season ride.  The best part is that it is free!

Put it on your calendar.

They limit it to 250 riders, so sign up now to reserve your spot.

Google Communities

We are going to abandon the Google Group that we have been using to post rides.
There is a better way.
We started a private Google Community called Wasatch Wheelmen.
