Trek Canada Pre-Ride Clinic

Roll out with some cool kids and eager adults on Saturday before the Trek Store Canada Cup at Hardwood Hills... had to put it off by an hour to avoid the rain and terrible ... but the weather didn't dampen anyones spirits and we had a great time... it's always nice to go riding with kids... although here's a funny story... Riding a Kid Clinic with Eric Orschel (High school HPE teacher and great guy).... Barnes "So how do you like spending your saturday rides with a couple teachers?" Owen (9 years old) "You guys are TEACHERS!?!?!? Man... this SUCKS..." Tyler (Owen's 11 year old brother) "Man... I wish my teachers rode bikes and were cool like you guys...." We also had a Meet and Greet with the whole team plus Emily Batty (Subaru-Trek) which is nice for the kids and grown ups... although i was approached by a (thankfully supportive) mother... "So.... my son says you told him that the Routine after Saturday pre-rides is the parents have to wash bikes...? I'm not sure i like that...." I'd love to see how many kid bedroom doors are decorated with Trek bikes and Riders now....
