BELLES AND BASKETS
Want a ride a little more casual than the Midnight Century? About twice a month, the all-women Belles and Baskets group — made up of everyone from teenagers through 70-yearold women — meet at a coffee shop or bakery, then bike about 10 miles together. Whether they’re cruising down the Fish Lake or Centennial trails or braving downtown traffic, the whole ride is usually spent chatting. Ice cream, coffee and beer often follow. “I hear stories of recent surgeries, marriages, divorces, children, triumph and losses,” founder Betsy Lawrence said at a local TEDx talk last year. To her, starting Belles and Baskets gave many women not only confidence and fitness, but real, genuine friendships that last long after the helmets come off. The schedule varies, so it’s best to call Lawrence at (509) 951-4090 or go to facebook.com/BellesandBaskets for details.
