Emphasis on sustaining your own endurance pace (minimum 12 mph on flats recommended), regroup at top of hills, and personal responsibility for mechanicals and medical issues required. Brief stops for bathroom and food will be announced.
Please RSVP to help me with planning.
Things to bring:
- water bottles
- ride food (on some rides, food stops will be made for quick refuels)
- pump, multitool, flat repair kit (tubes or tubeless plugs, make sure you have enough for the ride planned)
- appropriate layers for changes in weather
Also recommended:
- fenders (please don't ride directly in front of someone if you don't have fenders.)
- lights, front and rear
- first aid kit (bandaids, pain meds, Benadryl or allergy pills good to have)
Before each ride, perform a quick bike check (brakes, tire tread and pressure, and chain lube and shifting).
