SIRV

In addition to just racing our bikes this year, Chemstar p/b UHC is also participating in a number of community outreach programs to try to give back a little while racing our bikes. The community outreach branch of our team is known as SIRV-which stands for Supporting Integrity and Responsibility in Velosport. We're starting by promoting cycling and health with over 40 visits this year to various schools, with a a focus on under-served communities. We're also running a helmet donation program and running several larger events at some bigger races. In the future, we hope this program grows along with our team, and that we can make an impact as we travel to other countries to race. It'd be great if everyone with a facebook account could look up SIRV on facebook to stay up to date with what we're doing, and go to Chemstarcycling.com and click on the link to SIRV as the website gets up and running.

Some of these photos may be a double-post but they are from our first school visit to the St. Andrew's School in Nassau during the Tour of the Bahamas.
