Hi everyone! What a great meeting last night. Thanks so much for taking the time to come out. Tobin shared his experience as a first time rider last year and I just wanted to put it here for those who weren't able to be at the meeting.
"Last year I have to admit that my initial draw into the ride was the thought, "oh wow, a chance to do a 400 km supported ride! How cool is that?!? And, um, right, I might raise some money for this cancer thing too." My experience last year blew me away. It was an unexpectedly powerful emotional experience for me and by the time I rolled into Delta I was completely seeing it the other way: the fundraising was the point; the great ride was a nice fringe benefit for me." Tobin.
It was great to hear about the new ride options this year to expand this great event to even more people!
- Ride from Kelowna to Merrritt with the team
- Ride from Hope to Delta with the team
- Ride from Delta to Mission and back to Delta with the team
Also cool will be the Skill Camps that will be a part of our training this year.
I've placed the charts from tonight's meeting (and the first one) in the Team Only area so feel free to use them at any events.
Ride Kit: There will be a kit order form sent to you via email very soon as we will need to have the numbers in for next Monday to LG. We will have approximate pricing to you then as well. The kit will be the same sizing as last year so if you know your sizes it will be simple. If you don't know your sizing, the fit kit will be availalbe at Cap's on the weekend to try on.
