Old Tascosa Cycling Annual Banquet

The Bike MS Staff was out and about this weekend at the Old Tascosa Cycling Club's annual banquet. We were happy to see everyone, excited about the new officers, and grateful for past leadership.

Old Tascosa Cycling is a great supporter of the National MS Society. In fact, they're selling raffle tickets for a $1500 Outdoor Element gift certificate, with part of the proceeds coming back to the National MS Society.

If you'd like to buy a ticket, call April at 468-8005, ext 26 or stop by our office, 6222 Canyon Drive, Monday - Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Thanks, OTC for your continued support!

Saw this on Craigslist today....

The Human Performance Research Laboratory at West Texas A&M University is seeking participants for a research study dealing Maximal Oxygen Consumption (VO2max) in cyclists. The study will consist of one testing session lasting about 1 1/2 hours where you will fill out three surveys and perform a VO2max test on a Veletron Cycle Ergometer. Blood pressure and cardiac changes will also be monitored throughout the test. All test results are completely free to you, VO2max is an excellent indication of how "in shape" you are as a cyclists. If you are interested in participating in this study please contact the Human Performance Research Laboratory at (806) 651-2374, or you can contact me at (806) 681-7127. My email is jgordon@wtamu.edu. Thank you in advance for your interestin this study and we look forward to your participation!
