Professional bicycle mechanic, Eric Greene of United Healthcare Pro Cycling Team presented by Maxxis, is coming to Patapsco Bike & Sport on Thursday, June 10. Just back from the Tour of California, Eric will conduct a bike wash clinic to teach how to properly clean and maintain your bike. He will also discuss what life is like on the road with a professional cycling team. Here's your chance to learn from a pro! Bring your questions on bike maintenance and the pro cycling circuit. Eric has been a mechanic for professional bike teams for many years.
This is a great opportunity to learn from a pro. Click here to see a recent article about Eric in the May 2010 issue of ROAD Magazine. He gives a nice shout out to Fast Freddie!

A shout to Matt Davis of NCVC for his recent license upgrade from Category 5 to Category 4 in road racing. A well deserved upgrade after getting on the top step of the podium in his last two races as at Cat. 5. Way to go Matt!
