Today, I had the pleasure of meeting Manilla Dean. She is the food director of the West End Food Ministries, a community-serving arm of English Road Baptist Church in High Point. For those of you participated in the VeloProject / Spinergy Labor Day ride, we asked that you contribute 2 cans of food which were then donated to West End.
Manilla had never heard of VeloProject or Spinergy. All she knew was that a caring group of bicyclists thought enough of their community and less-advantaged people to try and make a difference. I delivered 3 shopping carts full of canned goods along with another $150 in cash donations. Manilla was at once thankful, emotional and deeply grateful. Thursday is food distribution day at West End and the shelves were nearly bare. Later today, entire families will arrive in the hopes of getting enough food for the next week. Thanks to our efforts, they will.
In the end, it’s not about race teams or matching uniforms or even riding a bike. The West End benefit idea was first floated at a VeloProject board meeting. A date was picked, a route was planned and a bunch of bike riders chose to help those in need. And we did — and will — do it again.
To each of you who played a part in this, I offer a “virtual” hug of thanks….just like the one Manilla gave to me after she saw how much food was in the back of my car. It was as wonderful a feeling as you can imagine.

Please hold the date and plan to attend a fun ride and charity benefit on Monday, September 1, 2008. The ride will benefit the Food Ministry program of West End Ministries in High Point. http://www.westendministries.org/foodmin.html
There will be no entry fee for the ride. Instead, please bring 2 or more items of canned food or other non-perishable food items, which we will collect and present to West End Ministries.
There will be 2 ride options, one longer and one shorter. Cue sheets will be provided. Ride start is planned for somewhere in the High point area. We are working on the details, and will send out another note with more information.
Please also mention this to any other cyclists or groups beyond VeloProject.com, as we welcome participation by all.
Thanks in advance for your support.

30+ riders joined together for the 2008 Fourth of July VeloProject.com ride. Thanks to all the VeloProject.com sponser’s for making this ride possible. Also thanks to Don Shaw for his bike route planning. cue sheets, and other behind the scenes support and Donna Lewis for volunteering to become the event photographer and sag support for the ride. It will be great to see some of the newer VeloProject.com riders who were a part of the Fourth of July ride begin riding with the Tuesday and Thursday rides out of High Point as well as joining in other ride and bike support opportunities that VeloProject.com is involved in.

Bo and Hasnah rode the Fourth of July ride with our club on Friday. When Hasnah was leaving, she picked up the wrong helmet by mistake. The helmet is a silver GIRO TRANSFER. Bo and Hasnah would like to get the helmet back to it’s owner as well as get Hasnah’s helmet back. Check your helmet and if you don’t have yours I’ll bet Bo and Hasnah do. Bo and Hasnah can be reached at 880-0676 or you can leave a comment and they will contact you.

A Fourth of July VeloProject.com club ride has been scheduled for Friday, July 4 starting from the High Point Regional Fitness Center. Faster “hot foot” riders will roll out at 8:30 AM for a 65 mile ride and a more leisurely ride of 35 miles is scheduled to roll out at 9:30 AM. Route cue sheets will be made available at the start of the rides. Both rides will finish at the Fitness Center and a light lunch is being planned. So that adequate food and refreshments can be prepared, please let us know if you are planning on being a part of the ride by sending a “comment” response.

There will be a Meeting this Thursday evening at 6:00PM at the Culler Senior Center, High Point, NC of the Greenway Committee. Donna Lewis is a member of this committee and has worked long and hard to fight for enhanced Greenway opportunities and also to include cycling as a part of this project. She needs our support and we need to support this committee ourselves.
We will be leaving the High Point Regional Hospital Fitness Center on Thurs @ 5:45PM to ride to the Culler Center to show our support. Please be there ready to ride at 5:45. If you can’t make the 5:45 departure don’t let that stop you - come direct to the Culler Center.
Our last turnout impressed the Greenway Planners working on this project, so we need many more to attend this time to show we are serious in our support of cycling and making the Piedmont area cycling friendly.
