Bike MS and BikingLasVegas Partner to offer Training Rides
Monday, August 3rd, 2009
BikingLasVegas.com is proud to partner with Bike MS to offer training rides for anyone who is participating in the Bike MS Ride from Las Vegas to Mesquite. There will be a total of 7 rides offered each month for those who want to train in a group setting and to increase your miles & endurance.
Beginner Training Rides:
Two Sundays a month will be dedicated to those who are beginning level riders. The ride distance will be 20-25 miles averaging about 12mph. There will be a pre-ride introduction to gear shifting for those of you who need a helping hand in getting started.
Scheduled Dates for Beginner Rides:
———————————–
August 9th & 23rd
September 13th & 27th
October 11th & 25th
See Rides and Events Calendar for full details.
Intermediate Training Rides:
Four Thursdays a month, riders are invited to join in on a weekly BikingLasVegas.com ride in the evenings: The Thursday Night COOL Ride x2 x3. The objective of this ride is to do a 33 mile loop around the Summerlin area in the evenings during the hot summer months. Then, anyone who wants to join in on a second loop (x2) will be able to ride 66 miles to build up your distance goals. By October, we will be doing a third loop (x3) for anyone who is interested in riding a century distance. This is perfect for any rider who is participating in the full 165 mile Bike MS Ride in November.
Scheduled Dates for Thursday Rides:
———————————-
Every Thursday from now until October 29th, 2009
See the Rides and Events Calendar for full details.
Fun Monthly Group Rides:
The 1st Sunday of every month, participants are encouraged to join the BikingLasVegas.com Birthday Bash Ride (we affectionately call it the ‘cake ride’ around here.) The cake ride will offer two different level rides…with two different distances. Normally, a 20 mile ride and a 40 mile ride. The goal of these rides is to come and socialize and meet other cyclists from all over the city. After the ride, we eat cake and drink coffee and just have a great time. You will also find others who will be riding in the BikeMS event and a whole lot of support amongst the cycling community.
