Why you should Ride a Bike...
We've all got different reasons for riding a bike. Some ride for pleasure, while others like to race. Here are a few more...
1] For Your Body - Riding a bike offers many health benefits, including: improved cardiovascular fitness, increased strength, balance, flexibility, endurance and stamina.
2] For Your State of Mind - Riding a bike is a great stress releaser. Hey... its fun and you'll feel like a kid again.
3] For Your Community - Riding a bike is good for the environment. The fewer cars on the road the better. Riding around your neighborhood will open you up to a whole new world to explore. Take some time to stop, smell the flowers, and be a part of the your local community.
4] For Your Pocketbook - Cars are expensive. We all know that. Bikes don't require gas or expensive maintenance programs. And best of all, you can park downtown for free!

Congratulations to Ross Rader for a new Cross Ontario Record.
On May 10th, our very own Duke's Cycle LapDogs Race Team member, Ross Rader, beat the odds and the weather to complete a record breaking ride from Ottawa to Windsor. Ross did this in a gut-wrenching time of 35 hours - 45 minutes faster than the previous record set in 1987.
