Lets start a snowball effect
 
I was looking around at a MTB race last week and noticed there weren't any new faces around? Only 2 in the beginners class? Our numbers are dwindling!!
Track,Fixed,Mtb,Roadie.....

So here's the deal I challange everyone to spread the seed of interest to at least 1 non-biker this week. Take a newbie for a ride (don't kick their ass) Talk about how much fun you have,,not how much you suffered on your last century or 24hr event..

I got an old friend to try riding this week and he went and bought his first adult bike on Friday and he's 54!!! Wooohooo go Ralph!

Lets get some new blood out there!!

Here's the snowball part,,,tell all your Bike friends and challange them to do the same,lets see how this goes

When I was introduced to my new unit (I'm in the Air Force) last week I extended an offer to everyone there. So far no one has taken me up, however everyone did see me ride in, full pack on my back, in uniform, on my bmx bike (ss is still down) and they were impressed at how agile I seemed with all that stuff on my back. So maybe at the very least I'll be an inspiration!!!
