College GameDay will film a commercial this summer on a campus selected the fans. The school with the most votes by May 10th wins. Texas A&M is currently in first and needs as much support as possible.
Don’t forget that we still have until May 22 to fundraise! As a team, we have raised over $29,000. We can certainly get that to over $32,000 just by having everyone meet the minimum requirement.
Congrats to our Superstar Fundraisers ($1,000+)

What a great weekend and another successful ride to BTHO MS!
I enjoyed getting to know many of our new and veteran team members. It was also nice seeing so many Aggies and friends stop by our team tent or join us for Muster at the Fairgrounds. We would love for you to join the team and participate in future events. Please email olarmycycling@gmail.com to receive updates on the team!
We could not have such a great ride without the support of our volunteers. A special thanks to Randy, Meghan, Sylvia, Nancy, and Victoria!
For those of you interested in a team jersey or t-shirt, we still have several 2012 and prior year items available. Please email olarmycycling@gmail.com for more information.
This year we have the awesome opportunity to host a Muster at the fairgrounds in La Grange during the BP MS150. While we are still working out the finer details of the event, we would like to have a roll call. Traditionally, roll-call is for those Aggies who have passed in the previous year; however, Ol’ Army Cycling would like to extend that to include all Aggies who have passed and who are dear to your hearts. If you have a loved one who you would like to have remembered during our Muster (whether they were an Aggie, former student, or just an Aggie at heart), please comment below with their full name. Thank you and Gig ‘em!
