Two more sleeps till the Skatelife GranFondo!

It's not quite Christmas eve, but the excitement is building for this weekend's SLGF. All the arrangements are made & we are good to go.
Thank you to everyone raising $ for the event- so far we have pledged or raised $5000!

Also, a big thanks to our coffee sponsor for the event. North Vancouver's Cafe for Contemporary Art is providing us with enough coffee to keep us jacked up for the ride.
Next time you find yourself in North Van around the bottom of Lonsdale, pop in for a good cup of coffee (138-140 East Esplanade North Van). Or, check them out online here.







Stuff to bring...
Attention riders, here are some items to bring along to help your ride go smooth.
*Snacks / drinks for our rider stops along the way. Our Van of Shame will be filled with all kinds of food & drinks for you to have, but if you prefer something specific you can put it in the van to take en route.
*Spare parts just in case. It's handy to bring spare tubes, tires, etc in case you run into a mechanical problem along the way. Again, in the van we will have basic tools & some spare parts to help you out as well.
*Clothes to match the conditions. As of this afternoon, here is the Environment Canada forecast for this weekend.











We are assuming that the forecast will change to be hot & sunny for us, but in any case, bring cycling clothes that can keep you comfortable regardless of weather.

Looking forward to a great ride together! See you soon.
