Wednesday Night Social Ride

Continuing the Bike to Work Week celebration on Wednesday, May 14th, is the West Side Social Ride. This Muscle Powered sponsored event will begin at 6:00 PM at the Brewery Arts Center (corner of Minnesota and King Streets). Come join us for a 4 mile slow ride along the quiet streets of Carson City’s historical west side.

All participants will be required to sign a waiver (release and waiver of liability, assumption of risk, and indemnity agreement), and helmets ARE required. The route is mostly flat, and stays off the narrow, heavily traveled streets. Kids are welcome, so you are encouraged to make this a family event! We will also be giving out raffle tickets to all participants for Friday’s prize giveaway at the Firkin and Fox.

After everyone has checked in and signed up, we will start the ride. Please remember that since we will be on public streets, we are required to follow the rules of the road. This means obeying all traffic signs, and riding no more than two abreast. Hope to see you there!

WE CAN!

We Can (Ways to Enhance Children’s Activity & Nutrition) is proud to participate with Muscle Powered in Bike to Work Week and shine a light on the importance and joy of getting out of our cars and using our muscles to transport our bodies. We Can will be sponsoring a children’s walk of Historical Downtown Carson City on May 14, 2008. Meet in front of the Brewery Arts Center on King St. for a 5:30 p.m. start time. The walk will circle the historic district and each child will have the opportunity to find special buildings/sites. Each participating child will receive a map of the walk, a list of special places to find, and a bottle of water. The first 100 children to complete the walk will get a ‘goodie’ bag. Every child and parent will get a drawing ticket for a gift basket, one for a child and one for an adult. Please join us for some fun and fresh air.

Yesterday’s morning bicycle commute with Shelly Aldean is up on News Carson City. The direct link isn’t working properly, so you’ll need to scroll a bit to get to the video.
