Welcome to AdoboVelo

SoCal's fastest-growing & biggest Fil-Am Cycling Club
 
 
All skills levels welcome, regardless of NATIONALITY, RACE, COLOR, CREED. We just happen to like Filipino food (adobo, pancit, lumpia, balut, etc.) and love to ride.
 
MISSION STATEMENT:
We're an unincorporated association whose purpose is to promote cycling among all levels of cyclists, by organizing and participating in activities such as recreational group rides, competitive racing, free clinics to teach riding skills and safety, and club picnics, that are not for profit and open to club members, local communities, and like-minded cycling clubs.

Set for April 10 - March and April B-day Celebration. Interview and filming by ABS-CBN ADOBO Nation will also take place. Let's thank Ryan Roldan for arranging this event. ADOBOkits or your special jerseys are required. Instead of catering for this occasion, a pure potluck was suggested to save funds from back-to-back b-day and anniversary picnics till June. Location may be Liberty Park or Encanto Park as it's still being determined.
 
Let us know what kind of food you would like to bring by filling this QUESTIONAIRE. Please proceed to this LINK to see the food list. Thanks.

March 5, 2010 - We are forming a group of interested members for a GROUP SESSION at ADT Event Center. Please fill out this SURVEY if you are interested. Thanks. Arden

February 14, 2010 - Calling all 2010 members, let's form a committee to make our ASSOCIATION BY-LAWS active. This document and other references have been dormant for quite some time now. A lot of us think that this is way overdue and needs to be the priority just like our 2011 uniform. Besides the main officers: Dennis, Ed, Rosalie, and myself, I am personally calling our active 2010 members who are interested, who are long time members, who specializes on any of our events, scheduled rides, and have experience in these types of documents. Please email or call me asap if you are interested in becoming a contributor to this important document. We will not post them in our website as we will treat this as a confidential matter.

I'll let this post sit until the 27th of this month and wait for your replies before emailing soft copies to the volunteers. And let's set the deadline and make the announcement on our Anniversary Weekend as a gift to the club.

To begin, as these documents are premade already, we just need to tailor it to how we believe it should be. We may need to meet personally as a group to get this started but I also think that this can also be edited on an individual level by each member of the committee, reviewed and agreed by the committee, and consolidated by our designated lead.

Sincerely,

Arden Arindaeng - President
