Just Added: Segway Skills 401 (pacelines and group riding)

Always on the cutting edge of rider skills instruction, Savvy Bike is thrilled to introduce a new clinic for 2013:  Segway Skills 401 (pacelines and group riding).  As much as we'd like to see everyone ride a bicycle, we know that there are those who just can't cut it, so rather than trying to beat them, we're joining them.  Heck, at least they're out + about and NOT in a car, right?



This clinic focuses on group dynamics, communication, and safety.  We'll cover paceline theory, how to read the wind, and (most importantly) how to time your snot rockets so you only hit the riders you don't like.  We'll teach you how ride a wheel, paceline, and echelon.  Unfortunately, we can't teach you hand signals because we understand your lack of coordination and know that if you take your hand off the bar you'll probably eat it.  But heck, hand signals are for weenies anyways, right?

You'll find details on Segway Skills 401 and all our 2013 camps and clinics at http://savvybike.eventbrite.com

Velo Girls Changes Focus for 2008

Effective immediately, Velo Girls, Northern California's first and largest women's cycling club, will switch it's focus to an underserved audience: teenage boys and masters men. This change is in response to feedback from sponsors that working with women is just too confusing and frustrating.

Lorri Lee Lown, club founder, explained that this transition has been in the works for some time now. "I never really liked women. I don't like pink either. I just thought it might be fun to work with women, but I've changed my mind."

For years, men have wanted to be involved with Velo Girls, so here is the perfect opportunity! A willingness to wear a dress is the only prerequisite.
