In May we are very excited to feature for our last presentation of the year, Becca Book, a young and incredibly strong cyclist and racer in our local community. Becca will share about her racing the "Across Andes", a 1,000 km self-supported gravel race that weaves through Chile’s diverse landscapes. The 2024 route spotlighted the fjords, rainforests and dry high altitude grasslands of Northern Patagonia. Becca will share adventures from, and preparation for, her incredible adventure that she completed in an astounding time of 2 days and 13 hours, finishing the race as the first woman and 8th our of 160 total participants!!!
Even if it would take you a week (or more) to complete this incredible route, this is a rare opportunity to hear stories and and see images from an incredible part of the world. Bring your friends and join us.
Doors open at 6:30 for social time and brews , N/A beveraged and snacks. Presentation begins at 7 pm.
