Training/Social Rides
 (Designed for Recreational riders.)

Recreational Training/Social Rides: Distances ranging between 20 and 30 miles. These are local social, recreational rides with rest stops as needed, a slow to moderate pace, and with a no-drop policy. That is, if riders have difficulty with the pace, the group will reform and adjust the pace to keep the group together. A slow to moderate pace can be characterize as 13-17 mph. All riders should be self-sustained, being prepared with food and water, and able to deal with any mechanical difficulties, although other riders may have tools and skills to help. Route map will NOT be available as the route is normally determined at ride time by those who show up and usually based on the weather (winds).

Things to Remember:

  • The course will not be marked on the road.
  • You will be responsible for getting yourselves back to the start point. You will need to rely on the map if you fall back from, or get out in front of your group.
  • Even though we will be riding on country roads, remaining single file or at most two abreast and on the right side of the road shows respect for motorists, represents our club well and is highly recommended.
  • And as always, you will receive disparaging looks if you choose to ride without a helmet.
