Update on Ohio Weight Loss Bicycle Club
A few months back I posted about a new bicycle club that I and other WLS patients formed in the Akron –Canton area. I thought that I would give you an update. The club is moving right along and doing well. We ride a couple of times a week; a shorter mid-week ride and a longer weekend ride. We’ve finished 8 rides and have had anywhere from 2-9 folks on the rides.
It has been a rewarding experience. I’ve seen folks who have not ridden a bike in years get on and ride for miles. I was amazed on an early ride that a rider was so nervous when she showed up that she could not complete an 8 mile ride. She was amazing. Not only did she do the 8 miles, she ended up doing 18 miles that day! We have seen people of all abilities ride. All feedback has been so good. It is truly easier to ride a bike than you think.
If you are interested in knowing more or riding with us, visit our web site at www.spinoffcyclists.com. We have galleries of photos from our rides, as well as, rider comments. You don’t need to live in NE Ohio. Some of our weekend rides will be on trails in other parts of Ohio. Here are some interesting rides we have coming up. Hope to see you on a bike soon!
On June 12 we are having a kick-off event. There will be a fun poker run on the Towpath Trail and a bicycle fair. Immediately following our event will be the annual Summa WLS Group’s picnic. I know everyone is welcome. Mark your calendar and plan on spending a fun filled day in lovely Canal Fulton. Watch for more details as we get closer to June 12. http://www.spinoffcyclists.com/calendar/12538506/
