Upcoming Events: Last Sunday Pancake Breakfast: Thanks to Chef Caitlin Steel, Coordinator Lee Cole and Master Mind Henry Montalvo for a successful social and enjoyable gathering. Our attended members enjoyed a delicious pancake feast and races as cyclists speed by; for some it was an education to learn the technicalities and process of a circuit race. There were races for Women and Men, the one race I remembered most was the Women all category where there were three petite ladies with very large hart and determination to win as they raced with enthusiasm around the circuit; they had my support. Members the pressure is now on to top this fun and enjoyable experience; therefore, start making your suggestions for the next social gathering. Send Henry your suggestionhenry.montalvo@gmail.com.
