Early Bird Gets the Worm

I don't know if it was the warm temperatures or the fact that I bought an Ebike... and I feel like I'm spinning my wheels but I have a good friend on Dailymile that would like to go out soon.

"I want to Ride my Bicylce"... as Rex put it on facebook. If you are up for a Saturday road ride.. around the valley (Weather and road conditions permitting of course.) I want get out and ride my gut off!

Give me call 435-770-1341 or comment on the board. Let's plan on meeting at our usual hitching post(The Logan Aquatic Center) and Head North. I think if we stick to a valley route we would have better sunlight and road conditions.

I'm up for any route though. Purpose of the ride is to have fun so let's keep it casual. If we can't chat with each other we are going too fast!

Time to Register for Saints to Sinners

Saints to Sinners 

Looks like we have enough interest for two 5-person teams. The first five to sign up will take the name Team RYGO. The other five will be named Team GYRO (RYGO's evil dyslexic twin) or the more bland Team RYGO2 (actual members can decide). We can certainly add a third (Team ORYG?) if interest is there. There will be friendly competition between the teams, so negotiate and recruit wisely! 

$750 per 5 person team 
Cost per rider: $150 

The deadline for supplying your individual funds for the Team RYGO 5 person team is Monday March 21. 
The deadline for supplying your individual funds for the Team GYRO 5 person team is Friday April 1. 

First come, first served! Team members need not be affiliated with Team RYGO. We are not sexist, females also welcome. I (Matt) am officially on the StoS Team RYGO, fundage allocated! 

Since registration is by team, I'll be happy to handle the fund gathering and registration for Team RYGO. I'll also do this for Team GYRO unless someone else would like to step up to the plate. You can pay me personally (by check) or by PayPal (PayPal account: symetriic@gmail.com. Please accept any transaction fees yourself!).
