Cycling Groups For Men

Men's Group meetup

**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.** How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently? Then we will go into a topic discussion. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS** \*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\* 1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group. 2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another. 3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up. 4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space. 5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable. 6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.

Morning Has Broken at Seymour Woods (optional pancakes at Hills Market)

Six years ago when we were deep into COVID I was leading hikes for HikeOhio. One Saturday morning I scheduled a bright and early hike at Seymour Woods - Morning Has Broken. Ten people were signed up (you remember the limit) and I knew people were looking forward to getting out. Early the morning before my younger sister passed away. She had Down Syndrome and was the purest of souls. I didn't know what to do about the hike but ultimately decided to proceed as people were looking forward to it and I knew time in the woods would be good for me. It was just what I needed. This became the first of an annual event for the groups I have hiked with since then. Morning Has Broken is a hike for people to come and remember their loved ones that have passed, a time to reflect, a time to share, or a time to walk quietly. Seymour Woods is such a tranquil and serene place, quiet, peaceful. The fallen leaves - often a brilliant yellow - are such a calming reminder to me of the cycle of life. We'll go about two miles. It is at your own pace (it's a loop) but definitely not a speed walk. It is flat but I suggest poles as leaf cover is heavy and roots are abundant (this is where I tore my glutes two years ago). Ironically two of the women who were there six years ago have become my dear friends and are now part of this group. It is a relatively brief hike so you have the remainder of your day. Nearby Hills Market has $5 pancakes for anyone who wants to partake.
