Less Than A Week To Go

Tue, 02 Mar 2010 06:51

Hello Riders,

Less than a week to go. Air up those tires, lube that chain and make sure your helmet fits. Get ready to ride! Today I offer these tips and reminders to help you, and us, make this a safe and successful Pedal Thru The Pines:

• Take care of your bike but take care of yourself first. Remember proper nutrition and hydration before, during and after the ride.
• Warm up and stretch before and after to help prevent injuries.
• Please review the Safe Riding Tips and frequently asked questions on the FAQ tab of our website.
• This year we will have some food vendors at our ride: Coffee Dog will be selling your eye opening wake-up fuel, Las Cocinas will be selling breakfast tacos, HEB will be hosting a refreshment tent and Mike Wilson will be selling BBQ sandwiches, chicken and chopped beef on buns, grilled chicken wraps, chips, water and Monster drinks for your post ride fueling.
• We have added porta-potties in several locations and have stadium bathrooms available near Hill St. See MAPS on our website.

Always ride with caution, awareness and responsibility for yourself and others on the route.
