Happenings Down The Hill -- And Up A Few, Too: Thread City Cyclers Community Outreach

Thread City Cyclers, a local bicycle riding club, is announcing several initiatives for the coming bicycling season.

President Dave Waldburger recently visited three bike shops in the area and was able to secure the following discounts for club members.  Thread City Cyclers can be found on the web at www.threadcitycyclers.com.

In early April, regular Saturday rides will begin, and in addition the club sponsors a scenic century ride (yes, that is 100 miles!), though shorter and just as scenic options are available.

This information is being posted by Peter Leeds, a club member and frequent Patcher and who recently volunteered to serve as media contact.

Again, please see the work that club president Dave did below.
