What is it?
We support the 719 Ride each year by providing an aid station at Marshall Sprague Park at the corner of Woodmen and Blodgett Dr.
The aid station is stocked with water, hydration mix, snacks, chairs, and port-a-potties. These resources are provided by various sponsors of the ride, and SoCoVelo provides the manpower.
Volunteer
As the event date approaches, we will send out a sign-up sheet for volunteers. If you volunteer, you will receive reimbursement for one entry for the 719 Ride.
If you want to ride and volunteer, you can do that! You can ride the 719 Ride before or after your volunteer time slot.
I didn’t start cycling until I was 40, and then discovered an amazing community. Since then, I have moved to several different cities with my career, and the first thing I do is search online for a cycling club in my new city. I have met some lifelong friends by being involved in the different clubs across the US. I love riding my bike, meeting people who also like riding their bikes, and encouraging others to ride bikes. I’m looking forward to doing all of those things with the SOCO Velo members. I am also excited to continue the long history of this integral Colorado Springs club and expand our reach even further in the Colorado Springs community.
