	Kids on Bikes (KoB) Event Sept 25th (a Saturday) 10am to 2pm. Come ride with KoB for their 1st annual fundraising ride! KoB is excited to use the AF Academy for the event headquarters and ride the most beautiful section of the Santa Fe Trail. There will be 3 mountain bike ride options using the trail system. After the rides, there will be a family picnic and lots of fun activities for the kids. All proceeds from the ride will benefit the KoB in bringing joy "one bike at a time" to children in the Pikes Peak Region. Pledges collected will help sponsor 5th grade students in low income school districts to earn bikes by reaching academic, behavior, and character development goals in the KoB ABC's program. CSCC sponsored KoB last spring with a $2,800 donation. We encourage CSCC members to support this activity. KoB also needs volunteers on that day to help with the ride. For more information on volunteering contact Connie Miller at millercycling@gmail.com . More >>

President's Message

9/6/10

Fall is in the air. There was great weather for the 34^th Annual Balloon Fest this weekend. We had about 30 bikes ride to Memorial Park Sat night for the Balloon Glow. Barb and I went Sunday night. We have another Labor Day Monday Accent bike ride and breakfast ready to go with a great weather forecast.

The Sept 7^th Club Meeting starts with food at 6:30pm at the Clarion Hotel (I-25 & Bijou). SRAM (Colorado Springs facility) will be our featured speaker. Stan Hill has a feature for us. We have lots of Sept activities that we’ll cover: 9/11 Ride for Heroes, 9/25 Kids on Bikes Event, and 9/26 Velodrome opportunity.

Harry Harris is getting a little better. He remains in the new Penrose Hospital in room 6110 and really appreciates visitors. Rhoda said 10 minute visits would be ideal for him.

The annual Progressive Dinner is Oct 24^th. Three host couples volunteered - that day will be spent across the north side of town. More details later. We should have our new Club jerseys (25^th anniversary model) here in time for that ride.

Remember, a Stop sign means STOP – let’s make sure we each take our foot from the pedal and put it on the ground!!!
