Schedule Change For this week!!

Posted by & filed under Blog. 4 Comments

I am going to take time tomorrow to thank everyone who came up to Prescott and made the weekend so much fun. However for now I want to make sure to get this information out.

 

Hopeful plan
Tuesday— All kids go on a road recovery ride. This will help the Gila kids prepare. They could even do a few openers to feel super ready. They should.
All Whiskey kids should just cruise.
If we had two coaches then those kids who did not race Whiskey could go on a good mtb ride with Chuck.
Wednesday— 4:30 only. This would be for kids who did not race Whiskey and would like to ride. Whiskey kids should stay home.
Thursday— All kids could go on an MTB ride. Probably two groups.
Weekend– I would ask that all the youth and coaches think of what they would like to do. This time of year is really a transition period so it is also a great time to just be home enjoying your family or going on hikes, or maybe you want to ride. I leave that all to discuss.
