Nothing But Rides
A small team is addressing the issue of how to maintain an updated listing of rides happening in GV each week.

• Take a survey on your Riding preferences and group rides. Click on SURVEY
• Contact Karen at [email protected] if you're interested in working on the issue with our team.   We need folks who have used group apps to coordinate rides or who might be willing to lead club rides. 

 "SAFE STREETS  FOR ALL" Committee had T-shirts made to promote "Safe Streets”  to make bike riding safer.  Posada Java has sizes small to 2XL. A bargain at $15.   Chuck Hill was involved with design.
