DMR/Devo Locals Day This Sunday
Hello Ski and Cycling fans. Its that glorious time of year where you can ride the bike and ski in the same day. This weekend at Durango Mountain Resort, you can do just that with the Durango Devo Locals Day.
Devo Coaches and Athletes have put together a Mob Run Schedule throughout the day and would like to invite you to join us.
DEVO MOB RUN Schedule (bring a Devo jersey to wear during these)
10am at bottom of six pack
12pm at top of chair 3

Also remember to bring the Fat Bike for a run down the mountain after the last skiers go down. Meet at the six pack at 4pm and bring 50 cents if you want a lift. You will just need to sign a waiver. Rumor also has Ska raffling off a sweet Venture snowboard at 4pm as well, so plenty of action this sunday! Print off the below!

Bicycle Lemonade Helps the BOCANABEACHBIKERS
In November, Bicycle Lemonade built and sent 8 kids bikes to La Bocana, Mexico with a guy from Durango. La Bocana is a little fishing village in the far south peninsula, population of 600 people. One bike went to a little girl in the club who had no bike to ride as none in the village fit. Nice work Bicycle Lemonade. Recycle them bikes! Check out the BOCANABEACHBIKERS web site here.
