There are usually several ad hoc rides listed on the website under Ride Changes.  Be sure to look there for any last minute changes or additions.  http://www.bikesclub.org/html/ride_changes.htm 

 

Please let the Ride Coordinator early what date you want to lead a ride.

The Coordinator has the job of trying to fill our weekend, and weekday, rides without too much overlap.
 

All ride descriptions must be submitted before the 18th of the month.

 

Ride leaders are encouraged to support each other’s rides by checking in with the Coordinator on dates to avoid double listings, especially rides at similar paces and distances.

 

BICYCLE HELMETS ARE REQUIRED ON ALL BIKE RIDES.
