Train the Clermont Hills With OYM - This Weekend and Next
UPDATE 7/25: Our OYM Clermont ride tomorrow, on Sunday, 7/26, is officially cancelled due to weather. Zach will announce more dates soon. Good luck to anyone who still wants to go on their own. You can refer to last week's route if you'd like, which is linked below. Thanks!
If you're looking for a great (fun!) training opportunity with good folks, come ride the Clermont hills with us. This is a chance to practice on some real hills and gain experience on steep inclines (things you'll have difficulty finding here in South Florida). Everyone is welcome.
We'll be leaving from Waterfront Park at 7 a.m. both Sundays: 7/19 and 7/26.
WATERFRONT PARK (CLERMONT)
Waterfront Park is located at the corner of Palm Street and 2nd Street in Clermont, FL 34711 and borders Lake Minneola. All levels of cyclists are welcome to join us in these Sunday training rides. We'll have guides available to help all the cyclists navigate the course. The ride is 65 miles total, but depending on who shows up, there may be a 40 mile option available.
To preview the course that we will be riding on Sunday, July 19, click HERE. The course for Sunday, July 26 will be determined based on our turnout for the 19th ride.
If you need a place to stay overnight on Saturday, July 25, we have rented a house that will provide easy, inexpensive accommodations the night before the ride. These accommodations are only for the second weekend, so if you are attending the ride the weekend of July 19, you will have to find your own place to sleep unless you've already signed up with us.
If you need any additional information regarding the Clermont ride, please feel free to contact Zach in the store: (561) 842-2453.
For those of you who prefer to stay local, our regularly scheduled OYM Club Ride leaves from the shop this Sunday, 7/19 at 7 a.m.
We hope you can join us!
Love, Peace and Bicycle Grease,
Matt & Julie
