Spinning Nation - Ride to Recovery

Ride 2 Recovery benefits the mental & physical rehabilitation of wounded veterans, with cycling at it's core. IFoundFitness is sponsoring three rides on November 3rd in aid of Ride 2 Recovery.

IFoundFitness, located at 190 Main Street, Deep River is proud to be the only Connecticut fitness facility to sponsor  “Spinning Nation, 2012”. 

On November 3rd, 2012, local resident Donna Scott, owner of IFoundfitness and “Spinning”, the world’s leading indoor cycle company will sponsor three, one hour Spin classes to raise money for veterans of the military that have been injured or disabled in service.

Scott said, “the event will raise money for the implementation of rehabilitation centers across the country.  Our hope, at IFoundFitness, is to raise enough money to fund a bike for one of these wonderful centers.  The cost of a new Spinning Bike can range between $1800- $4000.
