Saturday Ride

Starting March 9th the Saturday morning ride is going to experience some changes for the better. At 5:45am Shawn O'neal will lead an elite ride. At 7:00am an advanced ride will go at an aggressive pace. Then at 7:30 a club member (any volunteers?) will lead out a recreational ride that will be no drop. Splitting the ride will ensure that anyone that wants to ride can and it will help to keep the rides from becoming to big. All are welcome to any of the three.

Thank you Nicole Burge!

Thanks to Nicole The Ghisallo Cycling Club has their very own trainer for the MS150. Nicole has agreed to provide the team with weekly training schedules in order to ride the 150 miles or the double century. Nicole is a an accomplished athlete, with amazing results; KONA IRONMAN. She and her brother started a company to help others accomplish the rewards they have had in endurance sports. You can find out more about the individualized training she offers with Gateway Endurance Training. Nicole you are an amazing athlete, woman, mother and an inspiration to all. With Nicole's help and the support from our club even the couch potato can start doing something positive with this program for themselves and for a great cause. So jump in and let's work together helping other while learning the struggles people with MS have to endure. MS is like learning to ride 150 miles, there will be good days and bad days, but with the help from professionals and the support of friends life is a little easier.
