SUNRISE - Saturdays and Sundays at 7:00am
A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. This isn’t just the motto of Camp Amistad but also an ongoing zMotion motto. We’re all in this together and we’re all here to help out one another. zMotion put Camp Amistad together in order to help fellow cyclists become better riders from learning new techniques to teaching basic bicycle maintenance. Become the teacher or the student by joining and participate in extensive monthly cycling drills, important team building exercises, and explore the beauty of western Broward. This is a fun, instructional group that exemplifies the meaning of never leaving a rider behind. Join us on www.meetup.com/CampAmistad for the latest and greatest ride details!

November-March: 6AM @ Bagels 4 U
8735 Stirling Road, Cooper City, FL 33328
Camp Cowboy promises to be a safe and fun experience for intermediate and more experienced riders alike. It's just a great way to break up the work week with a nice safe ride. We ride safely on the empty streets of the closed for the day industrial park of Sunrise, the new path that connects to Markham Park as well as the empty lanes of the Park, For those of you nervous about riding on the road alongside traffic, this is a great opportunity, as we very rarely see a car on our rides. After we lose the benefits of day light savings time we will move to riding in the morning from Bagels 4 U on Stirling and Pine Island were we loop around the quiet streets of Rock Creek and head to the service road alongside Flamingo road as we get our 20 to 25 miles in. After the ride a bite to eat is never out of the question no matter what ride we are doing!

You know the drill. The plan is to go out and ride your bike or run the block. The moment comes but so do the excuses. We’ve been there and we hear you. Joining a social cycling and running camp is the perfect antidote for any excuse. That’s why we put together Camp MS Training. We get together every Monday and Wednesday at 6AM to pedal up and kick excuses to the curb. With 3 levels of riders ranging from basic to advanced, there is no reason to feel intimated. Then once FRIDAYS comes, we’re ready to unwind with Happy Hour at 6:30PM. If you ready to ride, then we’re ready to have you join. Just visit www.meetup.com/Camp-MS-Training for all the details.
