NO LEADERS, NO RIDES! PLEASE VOLUNTEER TO LEAD A RIDE TODAY! So far Pete, Megan and I are the only people who have volunteered to lead rides – we need YOU to keep this great tradition going! One of great things about riding with the team are the awesome WoJ training rides all over the Front Range. Each weekend, different team members volunteer to lead fellow riders some of their favorite rides. We’re happy to announce that elite rider and coach, Megan Hottman will be our Wheels of Justice Coach again this year, leading us on rides on May 17, June 21 and July 1. So we need WoJ members to sign up as Ride Leaders on all of the other weekends. To volunteer as a ride leader, please email Todd Collins at toddacollins@yahoo.com (Many thanks to Todd for volunteering again for this job!).
Sign up for Wheels of Justice Apparel before May 20! As we did last year, we will offer cool WoJ apparel as a fundraising bonus to our great riders. Those who commit to raise of donate $500 or more will receive a totally cool WoJ custom Primal cycling jersey and those who commit ro raise or donate $1000 or more will receive a stylin WoJ wind jacket. This swag will only be available to those who commit by May 20 to raise or donate these amounts and then actually achieve these fundraising levels. Due to our budget constraints this year, no extras will be ordered.
