20140829_135633Dear Yo-Cyclists-
Tomorrow is our second to last Yo-Cycle session before we go into our winter hiatus. Tell anyone who has expressed interest so they don’t miss this opportunity. We will be meeting at the Valley Bikery (14416 Victory Blvd #104 Van Nuys, CA 91401) between 9:00 a.m.-9:30 a.m. The ride leave promptly at 9:30 a.m. down the orange lane bus bike path to Lake Balboa. We will be arriving at Lake Balboa around 10:15 a.m. For exact locations at the park click on the following links: http://goo.gl/fdFxSs, http://tinyurl.com/yocycle.      We will be practicing a yan yoga (physical form of yoga) class for about an hour. There will be some fun partner stretches we will be playing around with towards the end of class and some good stretching and strengthening “asanas”/postures. All levels are welcomed no prior experience needed, you practice to your respective edge, and there are modifications as well as child’s pose 🙂 Your breath is your tool through out our practice. After class we will head back to the Valley Bikery.
If you are interested we will be riding from Valley Bikery around 1:00 p.m. to the Dia de Los Muertos event in Canoga Park. This is a cool free event in my neighborhood. I went last year and had a lot of fun. There will be taco stands, music, dancers, and local artisans. The festival is free to enter, but you do need to bring money if you plan to purchase food or any cool local artisans’ pieces. http://www.mainstreetcanogapark.com/diadelosmuertos.php

Also please save this date: Sunday, November 9th 2014. This will be our last yo-cycle session before winter hibernation. And afterwards we will be doing what we have always talked about …  which is a BBQ at the park. It will be a pot luck BBQ in celebration of a Goodbye party to our Yo-Cyclists and Valley Bikery volunteer, Dennis as well as a baby shower for myself. So there are a lot of changes going on, ’tis the season of change :)- And would love for you guys to join us next Sunday for the farewell/baby shower bbq party in the park. More information will be posted tomorrow evening on facebook as well as an e-mail should be coming out tomorrow night or early this week so stay tuned.
