Team Meeting Feb 6th Friday 6pm @ Club House

Dear El Grupo Riders & Families,

February is looking to be a busy month for us, and we would love to make sure you are in the loop with upcoming events, and get some input, participation and support from you about how to accomplish all that we hope to this month.


The two main happenings are the following:

KONA 24 Hours in Old Pueblo Mountain Bike Event – February 12-15th

Trip to Hermosillo, Mexico to ride Velodrome – February 25th – March 1st


For both events, we are asking that riders miss at least one day of school (the 13th and 25th respectively). However, riders MUST get your permission and the school’s permission in order to participate in these events. In other words, if you are falling behind in classes, grades are slipping, or something major will be missed, you need to prioritize academics. PLEASE talk with Ignacio and Daniela about this.

Other points of discussion have to do with transportation, food, and lodging, as well as making sure that each rider has the appropriate gear and clothing for the different events (i.e. clothes for cold damp weather at 24 hour event; respectable pants for Mexico). We will be developing “gear lists” for both events.

Please join Ignacio and I for a TEAM MEETING on this FRIDAY, February 6th at 6pm at the clubhouse (following El Grupo practice).

If you cannot make this meeting, please contact Ignacio and/or Daniela for further information. These are truly exciting events, and they require tons of logistical planning.

We could use your help in making them both successful. Thanks!


Please contact Daniela (777-8629) and/or Ignacio (349-1701) if you have questions.
