  • Time to "Kick" It Into High Gear

    Let's get the party started and kick it into high gear! The San Antonio Tour de Cure is only 12 short weeks away.

The weather looks promising so take advantage of it while you can. February 20th - Boerne - Sisterdale - Waring...

  • Congratulations to the top 100 fundraising for the Ride "IN" the River

    The wait is over and now it's official. Velo Valero has a very large presence again this year in the top 100 club. We had a tough economy, an exceptionally hot summer for training, a wet ride, and a new route to contend with last year. Each one of these individually would give any rider and team the difficult task in preparing for a successful event...

  • Fire The Local Weatherperson!

    Sunday Ride Recap provided by PJ. Well Sunday was "supposed" to be warmer than Saturday. As a result, John scheduled an afternoon ride from Judson High School. As we all now know, the temp on Sunday afternoon barely hit 36 degrees at its high! Yikes!! Around noon, I thought for sure the ride would be cancelled, but, John believed the forecast...

    Two training ride options for this Sunday, January 17th. Carl will be riding Sunday morning from the parking lot behind the Starbucks in Leon Springs at 9AM.

  • Happy New Year to all!

    I hope you had a relaxing and stress-free holiday season. Now let's jump right into cycling for 2010 and start looking to the future, which means Tour de Cure is nipping at our heels. It's also time to separate the men from the boys. (Sorry if this isn't politically correct, I like the way this sounds) You know it's difficult to schedule...
