Tour de Fort - 2010

Tour de Fort

Come join us on Sunday, August 15, 2010 to ride in the longest running bicycle tour in Jefferson County. The annual Tour de Fort Bicycle tour, sponsored by the Jefferson County Bicycle Club, offers multiple ride distances, a free chicken dinner after the event, well marked routes on low traveled roads, fantastic rest-stops and SAG support.

NAMI Racine's 2010 Bike 'n Hike Event

The NAMI Bike ‘n Hike will take place on Sunday, September 12, 2010. The NAMI Bike ‘n Hike is more than a fundraiser; it’s a day for the community to join with individuals and family members whose lives are touched, briefly for some and a lifetime for others, by mental illness. Since 2002, by taking part in the NAMI Ride, participants have raised over $85,000 to help those in Racine County whose lives are affected by mental illness. Again this year walkers can enjoy a 4k (2.5 mile) hike/walk through Waterford High School’s wooded Ecology Center and Cross Country course.

2009 Summary / 2010 Objectives

It has been a long while since I have provided a club update. A few weeks ago, long-time members got together and reflected on 2009 and 2010 objectives. This article provides a summary of both.

Thanks!
