Spring Ride Stride

01 November to 30 November 2010

This is your chance to have fun with friends, family or workmates and be in to win some great prizes.
Spring Ride Stride is a game for teams of up to 10 people. If you have more than 10, make two teams.
Each team sets a walking and/or cycling goal, for example, the length of the South Island. Each walk and ride a member of your team does in a month adds to the total.
Just think - each time you walk to a cafe for a coffee, bike to work, or each time you walk the kids to the playground, you're getting closer to your goal.

Step 1: Get a team together - up to 10 members (your family/whanau, friends, workmates etc)
Step 2: Choose a captain
Step 3: Create a team name
Step 4: Complete the registration form (available from the Heart Foundation, ph 545 7112) and send it in
Step 5: Receive your Spring Ride Stride kit
Step 6: Team members report weekly distance to captains, who provide updates on www.springridestride.org.nz
Step 7: Tell us a fun, odd or interesting story about your team and/or send in a team photo and you could win a prize
Step 8: Complete and send in your team chart by 10 December 2010 to be in for prizes

Taken from the registration form provided by NCC, TDC, Way2Go, Sport Tasman, NMDHB, and the Nelson branch of the Heart Foundation

We were thrilled to have you all in migym last week, trying something new. We've had great feedback from all the classes we held for you, and many of you have been back in for another look! We welcome you to come and try another class, or to do a full hour of Zumba, or just come in for a look around the gym. Our staff are all trained professionals who can help with any queries you may have. See you soon! Rachael and the migym team.

Session 3

Next week we head to Ride Nelson in Halifax St (opposite NCC, next to the library) for a one hour session on bike maintenance and basic mechanic skills (ie how to change a tyre etc).

I need to do a bit of forward planning for this one, so can you please email me if you are going to be there on Tuesday night - nelsonactivator@gmail.com

You only need to bring yourself, no need to bring a bike - as Carl, Jarron and the team will demonstrate on bikes instore.
