ABC Ride: Canceled!

[Joel Arbeitman]

Hi all.  Unfortunately, it looks like spring has unsprung and ABC will not be scheduling any rides for a while.  Tomorrow, rain.  Next Wednesday, cold.  The following Saturday, April 5, more rain.  Sheesh …

Stay tuned, though, as the forecast could always improve.  When the weather cooperates, ABC will be ready to roll.

The 2025 Real Truth About Health Conference (April 4 – April 20 online and free)
This is good for you.  No it isn’t, this is bad for you. There’s no shortage of health information sources but the problem is that it is often very difficult to separate the good “influencers” from the bad ones.

When it comes to a healthy lifestyle, including things like diet, sleep, exercise, and “community”, are they all pretty much the same or are there really things we could do to be healthier and happier?

For the last bunch of years, I’ve spent a whole lot of time attending a free online conference called “The Real Truth About Health”.  The conference organizers say this about their annual conference. Everything presented at the conference must pass a high standard of scientific research.  Science is often clouded by for-profit industries that distort the messages we receive.  The primary objective of this conference is to cut through all the noise to give us the best available health information.

This is a rare opportunity to learn from the best in the world.

ABC’s Weston, Ma Traffic Safety Recommendations
Last week, I had the opportunity to provide some suggestions to Weston’s Traffic Safety Committee and the engineering firm they hired.

ABC has several rides that go through Weston and the cycling infrastructure there could, well, use a little help.

If you’re interested, the changes I recommended are summarized in the attached document.

E-Bike for Sale
One of our members is selling her e-bike and we’re trying to help her find a buyer.  The bike is a S/M Cannondale Adventure Neo Pedal Assist bike.

If you’re interested, contact me and I’ll get you all the details (specs, price, etc) about the bike.

In the meantime, here’s a pic:

Hope to see everyone sometime soon!
