Hello all!
Just got an email about this event, it sounds like fun and for a good
cause! I know that some of you are sad that Le Tour is over, all more
the reason to get on the bike and ride! The distance is from 12 to 33
to 40, to 67 up to 100 miles, so it is good for all riding levels. We
can also have a team if we get 4 people to register, which will be
cool to promote OA, and the team members can ride different distances
and save $5 off reg fee. Registration fee goes up as of August 1st. I
am thinking about a 40 miler
So please reply soon regarding this event.
Also, a few of us at OADC are planning to have an event on August 22.
Do something active - run, bike, possibly kayak or play tennis and
then have a picnic lunch, we'll have a back up plan if it rains.
Plus, OADC will be tabling at
http://dcvegfest.com/ on September 12th
please stop by and hang out with us. We'll be allowed to give away
food samples, so we could make some raw food bars from the Trive book

just finished reading it, and WOW it is a really great info. Learn how
to fuel your body before, during, and after training. I plan to get a
few copies at our table.
Moreover, Baltimore Running Festival is coming up on Oct 10th, some of
us are thinking to represent, and it would be great to have a strong
team for team relay or some people going the distance representing OA
with Go Vegan! message, as there will be a lot of people and possibly
media.

Quite a few things, eh? But wait, there is more! There is an interest
to hike the Old Rag mountain in Shenadoah valley, it is a a beautiful
and very athletic hike with about a mile of rock scrambling, if you
had not done this hike before, it might quickly become your favorite.
