Vernon Township Ambulance Squad - thanks for stepping in and helping us out - great to have you guys! Ruby Rose, always wonderful to have you and your awesome food with us. Bruce Kristiansen, thanks for the "official" support - you are the best! Eastern sports promotions, always such a pleasure to work with such a professional group - top notch!

Mid-week fun!

• Reminder - tonight is an I Dig Tuesday trail work night at Jungle Habitat! Don't forget, if you are a TTC racer, PayDirt is part of your racers agreement! Doing your PayDirt at Jungle Habitat is an easy and convenient way to get those hours in! Meet us at 6 p.m. at the JH gate - bring your gloves, bug spray and water! 
• Wednesday night is Ladies Night on Clinton Road! And this week, we have a special treat. Larry Towner from Team Town Cycle sponsor ProPower Coaching will be there this Wednesday to provide a bike fit analysis to anyone interested.  He will be at the parking lot at 5:30 p.m. with a stationary trainer. He will put your bike on the trainer and do a quick check for saddle height and fore/aft adjustment, and then make any necessary adjustments. Bike fit can be a complicated process but with these quick adjustments you can get very close to your optimum position on the bike.  This will result in greater power and better comfort.
• Wednesday night we will also have a moderate pace, no drop mountain bike ride at Jungle Habitat. Please be wheels down at the JH gate at 6 p.m. so we can get a good 2 hour ride in before dark! 

As always, if you have questions about rides and weather, you can check your email, our blog, or our Twitter page for updates! 

Hope to see you out there!
