Weather + Clothing

We don’t cancel for weather. All things considered, the forecast looks pretty decent. They’re not predicting snow, anyway. Please join us ride day – and please make sure to dress appropriately. Mornings tend to be cool. Afternoon tend to be moderately warm. If nothing else, remember this: synthetic or wool clothing is good. Cotton is bad. If in doubt, check with your local bike shop. Or check Bob’s blog here: Total Cycling Performance. Check the weather Saturday night and join us bright and early Sunday morning.

Merchandise

Your Ironman merchandise purchases will be ready and waiting for you after your ride. You must check back in after your ride to pick up your merchandise.We will not mail merchandise to riders. Please don’t forget it!

Erik’s Group Ride + Coupon Offer

Erik’s Bike Shop is giving away a $10 off coupon for their Erik’s Eden Prairie Grand Opening Event to anyone who shows up at the Iroman Bike Ride with any cycling jersey that has an Erik’s Bike Shop logo on it or any Ironman jersey. Pretty darn simple.  Riders can pick up their coupons before or after the ride at the Erik’s tent or the Specialized tent until 2:00 pm.

There will also be a group photo taken at the Erik’s Bike Shop tent in front of Lakeville High School at 7 am. After the photo, Erik the Bikeman will be riding the 65 mile route. Join him if you like. Everyone is invited to ride along as a group or ride at your own pace. www.eriksbikeshop.com
