VeloScience Vintage Rally to benefit Stop The Suffering

While VeloScience Bike Works is all about using the newest innovations and technology to enhance your cycling experience, we do still have a soft place in our hearts for the bikes of our youth that helped us find our love of cycling.  We love to occasionally break out the old steel rig and wool jersey and throw down on a club ride!  That's what this ride is about - reconnecting with the machines - and adventures - that made us fall in love with this beautiful sport!

Come join us for the coolest group ride you'll do all year!  Ride the oldest bike you own (or can borrow!), wear the gear that reflects a lost era, and celebrate the heritage of cycling.  We'll roll from VeloScience together at 9:00 am on Sunday, April 28, 2024 for a relaxed, conversational cruise over a flat to gently rolling 40-mile course.  Behind us a 1953 Chevrolet pickup will perform SAG duties.  The GPS route won't be published, because heck, you didn't need that in the good old days, right?  Old fashioned queue sheets will be available for those who fear getting lost.  We'll stop for espresso and pastries midway (electrolytes...what?), and there will be Coca-Cola if you need some sugar and sodium.

After the ride, we'll host a BBQ on our patio, complete with adult beverages and live music that reflects the "vintage" styling of the event from the amazing Angela Perley and her band!  They'll perform two 60-minute sets, so plan to stick around for this special performance!

We'll have some terrific prizes for a variety of categories....Scratchiest Wool Jersey, for example...so use your imagination, and do your best to follow the spirit of the event.  Authenticity is key, but we won't discriminate if you join in the fun without digging deep into cycling history.  And as a bonus:  there will be PUPPIES! Because all the profits from this event will benefit Stop The Suffering and the great work they do finding homes for abandoned and neglected pets.  All of us at VeloScience are parents of adopted dogs or cats, and we love to promote a great cause.

Helmets are required, no matter how much they clash with your vintage gear, but we won't stop you if you wear a leather hairnet helmet from the '70s!
