We`re stoked for the Twilight weekend ahead and want to remind you that we are going to be having a special Joy Ride Friday at 6. We`ll gather downtown at the 100 block of College Ave and leave downtown for a casual beginner-friendly ride around town. Everyone is invited and no one gets left behind. See you Friday!

Riders in Saturday`s Fat Tyre Crit are welcome to join us for the ride, and peel off at Walker Park to check out the course. If you have not registered for the Fat Tyre Crit there is still time. https://athenstwilight.com/bike/fattyre/
