2012 Season comes to an end

Everything good has to come to an end, but thankfully, bike seasons just seem to take a break.

2012 was a great year for Team ABCx.

Many new riders to our Tuesday night rides (which are on hold until the time changes), I think we had at least 10 people each night. We even started going out for dinner after the rides.

For Mamma Jamma our goal was to have 20 riders and raise $10,000. We had 22 register and 17 participate on ride day! But the best part was we raised almost $20,000 to directly help breast cancer patients in Central Texas!!! As of this post, we are team #5 in fundraising!

Many riders PR'd for distance, that is always exciting to witness!

So, for 2013, do we increase to 30 riders and shoot for $25,000 or $30,000?

Either way, hope you will join us in 2013 for Tuesday night rides & comaraderie and seriously think about joining us for the Mamma Jamma Ride, it's a great cause and lots of fun!

Come join ABCx--Austin Bike Chix as they host rides on Tuesday evenings to get you prepared for biking on the road so you can ride with more confidence and join some of the longer rides that Austin hosts!
