Some impressive stats gathered by Mr. Becker. 

Together, the 18 Sh!tgoosers who tracked their miles in May biked a combined 2791.1 miles! That’s enough to cross the US coast to coast!
They also biked for a combined 207.5 hours. That’s like doing 8 and a half Powderhorn 24s in a row!

Finally, they climbed a total of 43,981 feet in elevation! That’s enough to climb Mt. Everest 1.5 times! Mystery Trip 2014 idea!!

You guys are too awesome! Let’s blow these numbers out of the water for June! Keep tracking.

2nd Bridge’N event of the season – Saturday May 18th

Saturday night May 18th is the second Official Group Bridge’n of 2013

This Saturday we will meet at the Spiral at Gold Medal Park at 10PM. We’ll hit up a few sweet locations, and roll around in NE.  We have something special planned for yall.

The ride will be cancelled if its raining – text 612-eight 75 – eight 882 for more details.

This year Bridge’n is a little different. There’s going to be games, more organization and slower speeds. We know that in the past some folks have been hesitant to join in the fun and were a little intimidated by some of our activity. We want bridge’n to be fun and open to everyone of every riding level. We’ll be keeping the miles, the speed and the trespassing down. All you have to do is bring your bike, you lights, your helmet and if you want, a bag full of your favorite beverage.

We’ll hit up a few sweet locations, play some night games on Nicollet Island and then end the night at The Hexagon Bar where Buildings and some other awesome bands will be playing (for free). The total miles will be under 12 for the night, so it should be pretty easy.

Just provide a little detail about the type of riding you did that week (commute, training, leisure etc) and your mile total.
