We’re happy to announce the finalized Winter Quarter 2010 FREE (to current Husky Cycling club members) Spin classes at the IMA. Classes will start on 11 JAN and end (pending more information) on 10 MAR. Weekly dates are as follows:
Mondays: 8:15am – 9:15am (Instructor: Geoffroy)
Wednesdays: 1:30pm – 2:30pm (Instructor: Ben)
Notes: Bring a water bottle to class, the pedals on the IMA spin bikes offer two options: 1) traditional toe clip w/strap (a men’s size 9 foot will get the ball of your foot directly over the pedal axle [optimal position]) and 2) SPD (Shimano 2 bolt cleats). We’d recommend the SPD option
since it will get the ball of your foot over the pedal axle no matter what your shoe size is, help to minimize any dead-spots in your pedal stroke and provide for a better workout.
In the event that these dates/times don’t sync with your personnel schedule, the IMA does offer multiple spin class for a nominal fee.
If you are a non-club member and would like to join, please email Danny, our club president, for more information: koski@uw.edu
Tomorrow evening’s meeting will be in room 209a in the HUB at 7pm. This meeting is for anyone interested in hearing and talking about racing and race-training (even if you’re not going to race the collegiate series). We’ll discuss training, the collegiate race season, how to get licensed, and a little about the USAC race season. This is also a great chance to ask any questions you have about training and racing.
Also, if you have not paid dues, this is a perfect chance to do so.
See you all there!
