VALLEY GIRLS RIDE
IN HONOR OF
Wear your flair and a sunflower for Marsha
The Courses
10 or 20-mile starts at 11:00 AM
Choose either easy course of approximately 10 or
20 miles designed for beginners. The 10-mile
route will be mostly scenic residential roads with
one rest stop at the halfway mark. The 20-mile
route follows the start of the longer courses into
the countryside to the east of Clovis. These
courses were specifically designed to attract
beginners or coax former cyclists back on their
bikes.
35-mile starts at 9:30 AM
A truly mid-distance ride: this course combines
the relaxed social atmosphere of the short course
with some of the scenery of the long course to
make it the perfect challenge for the recreational
rider. Rest stops and support included.
Flat Metric course starts at 8:30 AM
Designed as a metric century course (100k or 64
miles) through the countryside east of Clovis, the
flat route is mainly rural roads with rolling hills
and flat stretches.
Hilly Metric PLUS Course starts at 8:30 AM
Approximately 75 miles, the hilly course is
challenging and requires fit, well-conditioned
riders. Experienced riders only!
All courses will be served by bike patrol and
SAG (Support and Gear) vehicles.
Event day check-in begins at 7:30 AM at Wild
Water Adventure Park 11413 E. Shaw Ave,
† MARSHA SORENSEN ¢
We had the pleasure of getting to know Marsha
when she joined Team in Training (TNT). She
was new to the sport of cycling, starting off with
an old bike and no experience. She threw herself
into the sport and the cause wholeheartedly and
became an excellent cyclist.
Right away Marsha made fast friends on the
team, helping to organize fundraisers and in
general working to improve everything related to
the TNT cycling team. She exemplified TEAM in
every way. After participating in the Cinderella
Classic in March of 2005 she decided the Central
Valley needed an event of this kind. Valley Girls
Ride was born with the goal of sharing her love of
cycling and promoting comradeship among
women. Sadly, soon after forming the committee
she passed away. She will always be in our hearts
and on our team.
Thanks Marsha for a great Ride…..
