The Durango Performance Center is offering a free event called “Physiology in the Park”. The presentation will analyze the body in motion, what happens as the intensity of exercise increases, and what limits our performance as determined by state of the art physiological analysis. It takes place in the Rotary Park and for kids and their parents from 5:30 until 8:00 PM on Thursday, August 16, 2012. Three time Olympian Todd Wells will be back from London to talk about the importance of understanding how the body works and answer questions from personal experience.
This is such great opportunity for all of Devo to learn more about our bodies on the bike.

Take the challenge!
Devo has partnered up with Safe Routes to school and the City of Durango to try and encourage kids to ride or walk to school! As well as advocate for safe routes for them to travel by! We have together partnered with Pro Cycling Challenge to challenge our kids to ride their bikes this summer! All rides can count towards your Devo rider earning miles for their school. Each school that complete the 518 mile challenge (same number of miles the pro cyclists will ride during the race this August) will get a special prize for their school! Devo will also be helping at the event leading up to the Pro Cycling: Bike Rodeo, Kids race as part of the Durango Enduro, and activities in Buckley the day of the first stage.
