Smashing Success

This 7th Coffee Bike Ride came to the end with a smashing success.

The California Deaf Wheelers (CDW) (San Francisco Bay area) inaugurated its first "Coffee Bike Ride" at the Iron Horse Regional Trail between Dublin and Danville last April.  After completing the full length of the ride, many participants strongly agreed that it was perfectly designed for anyone.  For the next 6 months, we had a good number of participants each month.  They want more rides next year.

The dVELO had chatting time at the coffee parlor.

The dVELO (Washington DC Metro) have promoted many bike rides since its founding and recruited a large number of members for the USDCA.  They have hosted a prestigious bike ride at the Five Boro Bike Tour in New York every year. Last May, a Gallaudet University president rode his bike with students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends of the deaf community.  A total of 51 participants (45 adults and 6 children) rode their bikes through Washington DC.  The purpose of the ride was to raise funds for the Laurent Clerc Cultural Fund of the Gallaudet University Alumni Association (GUAA).  Waving hands to the dVELO!

USA Cycling Team Invited to the Tour de Formosa

The USA cycling team is invited to participate in the international cycling event known as the Tour de Formosa in Taiwan from October 29 to November 7, 2010. The following members of the USA cycling team are:

  • Nick Schreiber, Arizona
  • Trevor Kosa, Washington
  • Rory Osbrink, California

    Bobby Skedsmo is the Team Director. They will have 7 stage races running all around the country. Flight to and from Taipei will be at their cost. The committee of the Taipei cycling organization will provide them meals, internal transportation and accommodations. This type of stage race is rarely experience for them because it is at most sanctioned for the professional racing and international cycling event. They are fortunate to grasp this great opportunity. It will be about 100 miles each stage race across the varied terrains. The first stage race will be a closed circuit around the heart of Taipei where the Presidential Palace is. The last stage race will be running along the coast and ending at the mountaintop with a climb of about 775 meters (2,542').
