Cycle MV Ride
How are the thighs feeling? Good or really, really, really good. If in the second category, the Island has just the event for you this Saturday, Oct. 1. Hop on a bike and ride 100 kilometers for charity. For those of the wimpy sort there is also a 50K race.
Vineyard teams closed out the month of September with several tough competitions in the Eastern Athletic Conference; league rival Bishop Feehan proved a particularly formidable opponent. Football, both soccer teams and field hockey play on home turf this week; be sure to come out and support the Vineyarders!
