Norte fun!
Norte night was a success!! You can follow more of their "More Girls on Bikes" program on their website. Michigan Girl Bike (& Hike!) Group represented our "kids" side by doing the obstacle course and squealing like children!!!!! Yummy smoothies, yoga in the park and a little bike cruise - a perfect night.
ALSO - we stole Frank the Puppy for the photo from one of our 2025 bike jersey sponsors Peace, Love and Potions!!! And presenting sponsor, First Class Closets, made us legit by bringing her granddaughter Autum - who had more guts than all of us on that obstacle course! Thank you, Norte, for a fun night!
(I will have the design and link to buy the 2025 MiGirl bike jerseys soon!)





Take that break
I am proud to be writing for the Iceman blog! Here’s my latest on quitting and not quitting lol.
MiGirl SUP Night this Wed. June 25
Let's do a SUP night! We will plan on paddling on Lake Ann. There will be no instruction nor rental, so come prepared with your own gear and able to paddle 60-90 min. Bring your SUP! Kayaks/canoes welcome too! There will be no "rescue" boats so paddle at your own risk. I can not get you out of a bind, ha.



We WILL figure out how to do a "toast" on our boards!
If lake conditions are unfavorable, we will do a hike at the pathway instead. I will decide day of by 3pm and announce in the FB group and email those who are registered if any changes. You must have a recreational passport to park at the launch.
Cost:
Free (if you bought the PRO membership)
$5 (if you bought the regular membership)
$15 for newcomers who want to try us out first and become spellbound.
