The technical component of the youth coaching course is this Sunday at Rutherford School off Hammond Bay Road. The course runs from 10am to 4pm. Participants are asked to bring a bike. Further information from colin@cyclingbc.net
The regular MIVA/OBB ride leaves from Oak Bay Bikes on Terminal Avenue, Nanaimo at 9am Saturday. These rides can be quite "spirited", so pump up your tires really hard and take an energy bar or two. Depending on who shows up, the ride may split into two so the less fit riders can proceed at a gentler rate.
For all levels of fitness / ability /experience, the Monday club rides are ideal. There is always a lead rider and a "sweeper" who brings up the rear and makes sure that all riders are able to regroup frequently. The next one leaves OBB at 6.30pm next \Monday.

MIVA 15km TIME TRIAL Nanaimo River Road
May 3rd. 2012
It rained for most of the day but from 6pm to 7.30pm there was a brief window of sunshine and the roads partially dried so the nine starters in tonight's I.T.T. Stayed fairly dry. The high humidity and little wind made for a fast evening and everyone improved significantly.
There were four new faces. Mykelti and Russell Berg joined the club and Gareth Slocombe rode for Hub City Tri Club. The fourth was PDA who made a welcome return after training hard all winter and just failed to beat his 2011 best at the distance by a scant three seconds. He is now living in Duncan and riding for Cycle Therapy. He rode the sixty kilometers to the event and after his superbe ride, rode back to Duncan again!
Next week is a two person team time trial over fifteen km.
This evening, Mike Sevcov confirmed that the popular Cedar training runs are to resume this year, albeit on Wednesdays. All interested riders assemble at North Cedar Intermediate School by 6.30pm on Wednesdays. The first rune is tomorrow, May 2nd.
