Bay Area Mountain Bike TEAM

Well, it’s that time of year again…      Team Luna Chix Summit and the kick off to our season of rides, clinics, and mountain biking!!! 

The Luna Chix Summit weekend is always an exciting time, all the teams of various disciplines from around the US descend upon the bay area for a weekend of learning, playing, and bonding.  The weekend always kicks off with a dinner at Clif Bar headquarters in Emeryville CA, this year we were treated with music from the man himself – Clif bar founder / owner Gary Erickson.  He’s a pretty impressive trumpet player and his band of Clif employees rocked the house!

Saturday and Sunday consisted of a plethora of events to choose from depending on your interest in team focus.  Although the sideways rain put a small damper on Saturday activities, I still saw a lot of smiling faces.  Sunday the sun came out and it was a beautiful clear day in the Bay Area. 

In other news, our Bay Area Luna Chix team will have a new mini member this year!  I’m currently 8.5 months pregnant and hope to welcome my baby girl to the team sometime around the beginning of May☺ (thus the lack of detailed information about how fun the mountain bike rides were at Summit this year but, from the attached photos, it looks like a good times were had by all!).

MARK YOUR CALENDARS!  We have Wednesday night rides starting up on May 2nd and running every other Wednesday from May – September alternating between a North Bay location (either China Camp or Tennessee valley) and Skeggs in the South bay.  Our first skills clinic is scheduled for May 19th.  Check our Facebook page (Bay Area Mountain Bike Team Luna Chix) for more detailed information about these events!
