Doctors Without Borders Charity Ride


Join us this Sunday, March 4th at 8am for a charity ride benefitting Doctors Without Borders. Our good friend Dan Patrick is doing the Ironman Arizona and raising money for this wonderful cause.

We leave the shop parking lot promptly at 8am, will ride for about 1.5 hours (with the option of a shorter route), and return for free coffee, bagels, and conversation! A $5 donation is suggested and the ride is self-supported.

Get out to enjoy the weather and good company. Check out these websites for further information:
