What’s up for 2013? • Signature Rides • Rides such as the Bike MS and the Red Balloon Ride where we get a huge number of Cheesy Riders (100+) to come out to both ride and raise money for a good cause. We will have 2 of these for 2013. • Fun Rides • Rides such as the Collin Classic, Tour Dallas, and Wild Ride, and Hotter n Hell that are less focused on fundraising and more of a “register and ride”. We want to focus on increasing our involvement in these rides. • Training Rides • Informal rides where we meet at the Frito HQ or other designated location to ride together as a team on designated routes. These are FREE!!!
New and Improved Website! • New version of Cheesyriders.org now rolled out! (Kudos to Marshall Parker!!!) • Improved capability to maintain membership lists • Event calendar can be easily maintained for every Cheesy Rider chapter • Link to our Facebook page to see pictures of Cheesy Rider events! • Go to www.cheesyriders.org to check it out!
