Girls Hit Growlers

August 11, 2008 on 7:08 pm | In Mt. Biking |

Thanks to Melanie “Ride Master” Norris, the first-ever women’s ride at Growlers was a huge success. A dozen women showed for the event on Sunday, August 9.

Mel has already scheduled the next women’s ride for Sunday, August 24th. If you, or someone you know, would like to sign on, contact Mel at Melanie.Norris@kyocera.com.

The three-hour tour included Predator, Beauty, Belly, New Guy, Terminator, Walk in the Park, and the Big Easy. Riders included Jen, Marcie, Dara, Mel, Alexis, Ann, Agnes, Sam, Haley, Dara, Brandy, and Ksenia. Several spouses showed up, along with Chase Jamieson who helped keep riders on course.

The crew gathered for a post-ride celebration near the start of Predator. “In true Growlers form, Ann and Alexis had beer waiting for us when we finished,” Mel said. “I’m sure anyone within a two-mile radius could hear the chatter and laughter.”

“I think everyone had a great time,” Mel said. “I’m hoping to keep the enthusiasm going into the winter months.”
