Sunday April 7th: Wenches with Wrenches workshop!

This is the 1st of our series of FREE workshops for 2013. To be held at Pasadena Cyclery: http://pasadenacyclery.com/. The workshop will run from 10am-3pm and will include recreating scenarios that happen on the trail we can repair ourselves so we don’t have to walk the bikes out. You will be working on your OWN bikes and using your own tools. Pasadena Cyclery will provide some tools if you don’t have them. They will also offer all GGR members a great discount for the day on items purchased the day of the clinic. We will only be taking 15 GGR girlz for this event due to the special attention the mechanics will need to give each and every one of us.

An event page for this will be on the GGR Face book page soon. Sign up IS required. This is a FREE bike repair clinic.

Saturday April 27th: The next GGR OPEN ride! Beautiful Sycamore Canyon in Newbury Park. Open to ALL levels and beginners encouraged! A sign up will be available soon on the GGR Face Book Page. Sign up IS required.

Slide1Sunday April 28th: GGR Girl Jenny Johnson is also doing a fund raiser to help raise funds for materials and tools desperately needed to maintain the trails in the San Gabriel Mountains! MWBA is a non-profit chapter under IMBA just like CORBA. There will be pancakes, prizes, music and swag! Please see the flyer for details!

Please look for a save the date for the big GGR annual event which will be at the end of October again. We will be having another CORBA/IMBA membership drive, silent auctions, raffles, skills clinics, back by VERY popular demand also will be the swap meet, and of course the awesome, incredible joy of cross country rides in our beautiful Malibu Creek State Park.
