We already have over 40 riders registered to ride for Team Shell.

I recently decided to participate in Bike Around the Bay on October 15-16, 2016.
Bike Around the Bay is a two-day (one-day options also available) 170-mile cycling event that loops around beautiful Galveston Bay.

Will you join me and Team Shell for this year's Bike Around the Bay ride? The more, the merrier - and the better for the Galveston Bay Foundation who works to preserve and protect Galveston Bay with its conservation, advocacy, education and research programs. I need more people like you on the team and if you register before June 30 (today) you will save $35!

This event brings awareness to Galveston Bay and raises money for its conservation. I know this touches your life in some way, as well as countless others around you. All funds raised will help engage local students in environmental education, restore depleted wetlands, and improve water quality in Galveston Bay and the tributaries, rivers, and bayous that flow into it.
Register by midnight today<http://galvbay.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4206cb94d54a76cf3f1dfe86b&id=4426e07c95&e=71dd594141> and save $35!

Let's stay safe out on the roads.  Remember to hydrate before, during and after your training rides.

Be Well!
