I met Lorge, Kimberly and Hal at Bella Bru at 11a on Saturday forSupermarket Sweep – a SABA-sponsored bicycle-powered food drive.
We rode to three grocery stores in N and S Natomas. We had about $390 to spend. SABA gave us $100, Jibe $250, plus our own contributions.
Our final grocery store was on Sutterville Rd, close to our final destination – Two Rivers Cidery on Attawa St.
We unloaded the groceries from our panniers and trailers into bags, then the SABA team weighed everything. 158 pounds!
Ahead of time, we agreed we weren’t interested in competing or winning prizes. Nevertheless, we improved our strategy this year and it worked. We came in 3rd place! 1-Pull a trailer. Jibe loaned me a trailer, Hal already had one. Lorge bicycle tours so he has front and big rear panniers. 2-Have one rider in your group who can post on social media – thank you Kimberly. Go team! Rob, me, Michael:
Such a fun event. We are ready do it again next year. Thank you SABA for organizing this food donation drive and Jibe for supporting our N Natomas team.
