Weekend plans

Finally - good weather! No snow! No rain! No 50 mph winds! And to top it off - Saturday is the first day of spring! So here are our weekend plans ...

Friday, March 19 - Spin classes at Kor Fitness in West Milford. Even with the increased daylight hours, it's still a little bit hard to pull off an after work ride. Join us at 6:30 p.m. for a great workout to start your weekend! We need to keep track of the numbers, so please let us know if you are coming - RSVP to either TTC atinfo@teamtowncycle.com or to our intrepid instructor Greg at gregmuniz@netscape.net .

Sunday, March 21 - a high mileage, moderate paced ride to Bear Mountain. We're looking to get some serious miles in on this ride, and to practice our pace lines, so if you've never ridden a road ride in a large group, this ride might not be for you - it's between an "A" and "B" level ride. Meet at West Milford High School, and be ready to roll at 12 noon. Here's a cue sheet for those who are interested in the route. http://www.mapmyride.com/ride/united-states/nj/west-milford/369126671330622751

We're still working on a possible ride for Saturday - we'll let you know if we come up with something!

As always, any questions, let us know. Enjoy this spring weather!

Updates and reminders

Just a few quick updates and reminders!

1. The Team Town Cycle uniform order is due March 15!! If anyone needs another copy of the order form or sizing chart, let us know. We want to get the order in ASAP, so don't procrastinate or you will miss out!
2. Another Team Town Cycle exclusive - don't forget our special 20% off LAS Helmets deal! All sizes are available for try out at Town Cycle, so come down to the shop, have Michael fit you, and get a great deal on a great helmet.
3. The weather might not be perfect yet for riding, but it's perfect for spin classes! Don't forget - Friday nights, 6:30 p.m. at Kor Fitness on Union Valley Road in West Milford. First come, first served. Please RSVP to either us or Greg Muniz at gregmuniz@netscape.net so we can get a head count - thanks!
4. Sunday is the first day of daylight savings - and the first day of trail work day for 2010 at Jungle Habitat! Given the conditions that we'll likely be encountering, our focus will be on clearing branches and access ways for the new trails we'll be working on this year. Yes, it'll be muddy, and a little wet, but it should be in the 50's Sunday, so come out and join us! Check out our calendar for all the details - and don't forget to turn your clock ahead!

Finally, we saw this in the news this week regarding Google Maps and planning bicycling routes - http://tinyurl.com/ylp36ya . If anyone tries it out, let us know how it works!

As always, let us know if you have any questions - info@teamtowncycle.com.
