The MCA is hosting a fund-raising event of BINGO Curling. This is a fun event….so the less experience you have the better! The Pembina Curling Club will have a cash bar open (no better place to sip your beer than on a curling sheet)! There will also be a 50/50 draw and great Silent Auction prizes from local cycling stores and other local businesses. The MCA board members have donated a gift basket full of wonderful edible treats as well.

If you would like to donate a prize for our Silent Auction please contact Moni at 261-3348 or email: mubouch@shaw.ca.

Registration is $20 per person (cash or cheque ONLY). Forms can be mailed dropped off at the shop.

(no need to register as a team, we can make teams up that night)

Registration forms here: http://www.cycling.mb.ca/Article.aspx?id=99

Please ensure you have clean footwear and a broom. The event will begin at 7:00 pm.

As a part of our regular sunday road rides, this upcoming Sunday we will be diverting into more of an urban setting – heading downtown to take part in the Ciclovia event.

Still start at the same time at the shop, but we will be heading north instead of south.

More info about the event here: Ciclovia Winnipeg

and of course if you just want to read up on the Tour de France, you can never beat Wikipedia.

Here is a nice gallery of Norco’s Spade flip-flop single speed / fixie urban bicycle. Already available, and are priced at $809.99. If interested in one, contact us for availability. These are in high demand at the moment and may be tricky to get a good supply of.

Although we have been running MTB rides concurrently with the KOM program, our first MTB club specific ride starts up Monday June 22.

Mapped route and other various information to be released!

A very interesting way that helmet usage is encouraged in Europe. An interesting way to be sure, and not one that I think we would see locally.
