Mountain Bikers are a Little Crazy

Hello again,

So for my service project, I have decided to work with Tony and Moore's Spring Trails. A group of 6 of us went out yesterday and it was awesome. The people out there were really nice and really passionate about the sport. It was refreshing to meet such nice people. After our 3 hours tour, we came back to the parking area and got to know a few of the bikers more personally. A large group that we took video and photos of were from Greensboro. We also met the owner of a cycling store called Re:Cycle. He would be an awesome speaker for events or for other peoples projects. He takes parts off of old bikes and creates something new, hence, the name of his shop.
I was really interested in the other service opportunities offered but I think that this would be the best pick for me. The trip really isn't that far (maybe 45 minutes) and if a group of us all wanted to go a carpool would be a great option.Professor Allen also said she would be willing to join us on Sunday's if she didn't have prior engagements.

If anyone has any questions, Shannon and I can share our experience in class today.

Happy Volunteering :)
