Why We Spin

January 13th, 2008

Besides the great exercise and healthy feeling we get from spinning, it presents some great opportunities to other things. One such opportunity is the confidence to participate in cycling events such as the organized MS-Bike ride.  This year the rides start in Sweet Oregon July 19 & 20, 2008. They are offering four routes on Saturday and three options on Sunday.  Checkout www.bikeMSoregon.com.
