UbD Weekend Training Ride Pictures - 7/3/2010

The United by Design Bike MS team held its 2nd weekend training ride on Saturday, July 3rd, 2010. Two riders from Team Arcturis and two riders from Team Christner, United by Design affiliates, joined us. The team rode a few of the Madison County Transit Trails in Illinois for about 28 miles. The trails were very flat and the scenery was great making the ride easy and enjoyable. We will definitely be riding those trails again and adding additional miles. Below are a few pictures from the ride. Make sure to follow the United by Design blog for information on our next training rides. Looking forward to riding with you!

Saturday Training Ride Photos - 6/12/2010

Tom Bahr and Dan Kennedy from the Lawrence Group joined Team Christner for their Saturday morning ride at Windsor Crossing Community Church in Chesterfield, MO. It was a beautiful day but hot! There are various route options allowing you to do as little or as many miles as you'd like. There were some pretty killer hills but well worth the climb as there were some great views. Below are a few pictures from the ride. We hope you can join us on future training rides. Make sure to follow United by Design to stay up-to-date on all that is happening!
