Keep tracking those miles in Strava for June prizes!!

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.

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.

Meet at noon across the street from the St. Anthony Main Theater. Manifests and rollout around 12:30pm or so. There will be drinking stops, but you don’t need to drink to participate. There will also be some obstacle stops thrown in there for fun. No entry fee and there will be some sweet prizes for top male and female riders – Do it. Music and drinks to follow after the race. Sponored by Memory Lanes Block Party, Flamenco Coffee and Minneapolis Instrument Co.

That’s right, Saturday night is the first Official Group Bridge’n of 2013!

Let’s start this bridge’n season with a bang. It’s going to be a beautiful night, and I know you are all just dying to get out there and feel the warm evening air flow through your helmet holes.

This Saturday we will meet at the Spiral at Gold Medal Park at 9PM. 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.

Let’s do this!

All you have to do is sign up for an account and use your smart phone to track your rides.  Its pretty easy.  Just make sure to turn on Strava for every new ride.  OR: For non-smartphone users, just send a weekly e-mail to shitgoosebikes@gmail.com with your totals. Just provide a little detail about the type of riding you did that week (commute, training, leisure etc) and your mile total. Just don’t send one e-mail at the end of the month saying you rode a bajilllion miles.

You will have plenty of time to log those miles on all the SG training rides in May.  We will award the monthly top female and male rider..  Prizes will be awarded the first part of June after we’ve had time to tally up the results.

The prizes for May is a 40 oz’er of malt liquor with matching coozie and a new white SG cycling cap.

This is open to everyone so enjoy.

Get on your bikes and ride.
