FABULOUS FIT EVENTS COMING UP

Tour de Femme
6-week cycling skills and training program

Supported by the ACT Government
under the ACT Health Promotion Grants Program

The Tour de Femme is a women’s-only 20 kilometre road ride that doubles as both a race and a participation event. In 2010 it will be held on Sunday, 12 November around Canberra. FIT is again running its popular six-week skills and training program leading up to this event. Many of Australia’s top female riders have competed in previous events and are expected to return this year. Most women, however, take part in this event as a 'fun-run on wheels' - a relaxed community participation ride, where riders can go at their own pace and enjoy a coffee and something to eat afterwards - while hoping to win something in the many barrel draws that are also a feature fof the event. Everyone who enters by the closing date will receive a T-shirt and a water bottle. Riders from teens to those in their 80s participate.

The six-week training program is for you if you would like to:

Feel capable of completing the 20-kilometre ride
Feel comfortable riding in large groups
Improve your strength, endurance and aerobic fitness
Get into road racing
Meet new people

Time: Training sessions will be held from 6:15am – 7:30am Fridays from 8 October to 12 November 2010

Place: West Block car park behind Old Parliament House.

Cost: Payment includes 6-week training program, entry to the Tour de Femme and FIT membership for non-members ( FIT is open to women 18 years and over).

$100 Non-FIT members
$60 FIT members
