PROMAN On Litter Patrol

Who would have thought that spending a rainy day picking up litter along the road could be fun?

Well the PROMAN cycling team volunteers did just that. Enthusiastic volunteers and team members from all over the Bay Area came together and spent over 2 hours one Sunday afternoon cleaning up rubbish on Alexander grade between the town of Sausalito and the north end of the Golden Gate Bridge, about a one-mile stretch. Everyone put in 110% effort to get this messy job done and did it with a smile! The volunteers, who included two current Elite National champions, got a few good laughs among themselves, as well as from the strange items found on the roadside.

It was an incredibly constructive 2.5 hours. The final toll was 14 extra large heavy-duty trash bags filled to capacity, one large plastic bin, also filled and a junky old door that had been discarded on the road.

After a tiring but very satisfying day, the team is already planning the next date and location! Stay tuned.

PROMAN cycling sends a huge THANKS to all the volunteers and PROMAN track racer Lorraine Jarvis for organizing the event.

Thanks to the PROMAN Team for their time and dedication in the community! Interested in helping out the next time around? Check out the PROMAN website for updates and more information!
