Stamina Racing Collective

✨Cheers to an amazing adventure and thank you for the incredible support ✨

The Immigration & Customs Enforcement operations have left many families in Minneapolis scared to leave their homes for any reason, including going to work.

Because of this, families will be unable to pay their upcoming rent and utility bills and are at risk of losing their homes.

We are partnering with a local school to support 25 families in need of rental assistance. All funds go STRAIGHT to those families.

If looking to support a cause and wanting peace of mind knowing it’ll make a significant difference in the lives of others, this is it.

Staff were all in tears yesterday when we told them we’d make this happen. Now, we need your help to knock this out of the park. Please share as widely as possible.

That’s a wrap on our 2025 Starting Line program! 9 of our riders braved their first race and man what an exciting day.
Just as exciting was the 23 riders in the field which is the most we have had since 2023.
Thank you for 4 weeks of coaching and helping us make this happen. We could not do this without you.

Starting Line skills clinic led by ! We covered bike safety, drafting, cornering, and much more! Our group of riders is ready for their first crit next Tuesday, July 1st. Thank you and for supporting these riders!

While on a ride, have you ever seen a really beautiful bridge and felt the urge to take a dozen photos from a variety of angles and distances? Me neither. That sounds weird.

Let’s recap nutrition! Corey with gave our Starting Line program a quick overview. Here are the highlights:
- Have a snack or meal before. Simple carbs are your friend
- Drink 1 water bottle per hour. Add electrolytes when it is hot or if you expect to sweat heavily. Tip: add carb mix to help increase carb intake
- For workouts > an hour, consume somewhere between 30-90 carbs per hour (depending on intensity and duration)
- Have a meal or recovery drink after. Should be a mix of carbs and protein

If you are hungry or moody during the ride EAT. Prepare and listen to your body to achieve best results.

We have some exciting events coming this week! On Saturday 6/14 at 9am we’ll have our first community ride! Meet at the Bryant Ave x Midtown Greenway intersection. Ride to Cream and Amber in Hopkins for some coffee then ride back. On Sunday 6/15 stamina will be riding in the crits at Dunwoody at 1pm! Come cheer us on and we hope to see you there! DM with any questions!
