Good Morning All

I hope this email finds you well and in good spirits!

The snow is for sure melting leaving behind some dirty roads that perhaps the next couple days of rain will help to clean up. Even still it has been nice to be out on the bike a couple of times (some more then a couple Richard) and each time I see more and more riders who are itching to get out.

Congrats to all those that made their way to Hamilton to participate in the 114th running of the Around the Bay 30km road race. I trust all are happy with their results and in the words of Gavin Barrett - "the best part of racing is stopping". The beer afterwards was pretty good too.

This coming Saturday we will be making a trip to High Park for a run and then to hand out flyers for our upcoming Run4Hope. We will be handing out flyers at "the Harry's Spring Run Off" which is held in High Park and this year is sold out with over 2500 people taking part. As we have to get down there and run before the start of the race, it will be an early departure from the Running Room, somewhere in the 7:30am region but we could use some help handing out flyers and of course no trip to High Park is complete without a trip to the local bikes shops to touch shiny things! Send me an email if you can make it so we know that you are coming.

The 100 day run challenge is coming to an end, about 10 days to go.. I would like to say that I am sad to see it almost finished.. but.. I can't..haha

If anyone needs a bike tune up or the like, I would suggest now is a good time to get that done. It is going to be 14 tomorrow..have fun!

Deadline for the FMCT membership is today.
