Getting to ride with new AFLCA fitness leaders, Lisa talks about how she loves to move and teach at the same time. Getting to "pay it forward" is a great reason WHY to move!
"Why i move? HABIT. I like the results: look better, feel better. I like to show off a little, impress the young guys, better yet inspire them.

"Tonight we ride for a cancer survivor; a cancer survivor who deserves rest and relaxation in the Canadian Rocky Mountains.
