Getting Rolling for the Year!

The weather has been teasing us a bit, not really wanting to let it be spring (snow!), but the Collins Cycling Team has been getting out and about w/ some organized mountain bike rides, some long running workouts (for the hardcore triathlete group), as well as some long road rides. As the weather improves and the daylight continues to brighten up our evenings, we will be holding more frequent group events and this blog will get more interesting.

For now, here are some new things to come...

Mudslinger Race
It's just a few weeks now until one of the best events all year, put on by one of our sponsors, Mudslinger Events. This year is looking to be better than ever with new trail construction and a resurgence of racer interest in Oregon.

New Team Clothing
We are expecting delivery very soon, likely in the next couple weeks. Then, we'll be out wearing our latest and greatest team sponsors logos and gaining some publicity.

Group Barbeque
We have tentatively planned to have a team barbeque at the Ripley residence (Monroe) in late April. So far, it's looking like the 25th. Agenda includes team photos, good food, socializing, and more importantly... the first annual Team Only Mountain Bike Short Track race, on and around the Ripley property! Should be for an exciting event.
