Hey, as of this writing, there is no ride leader for today’s ride.
Take heart, all is not lost.
If you are a Tuesday regular, I encourage you to sign up and ride with your buds anywhere you want. Check out the club library for suggestions: https://ridewithgps.com/clubs/953-skagit-bicycle-club/routes? Lots of good rides there. Modify, abbreviate or extend an existing ride to suit the group of the day.
What the hay, pioneer a new route :)
The exercise, the freedom, the wind in our faces. It’s all still there, just waiting for you.
If you are new to the Tuesday Social Rides, please sign up and come out to get a feel for the camaraderie of your fellow riders. Newer riders and all bikes are welcome.
Rider bike skills and experience sufficient for safe riding on the road are requested. Riders can expect to ride at a pedal bike social pace of 10-15 mph, sometimes slower, sometimes faster. Wind and hills matter. Re-grouping is the norm.
It’s preferred to have a couple of pods of riders far enough apart that vehicular traffic can pass each pod safely and pull back into the lane. Passing smaller pods one at a time is safer than forcing vehicle drivers to attempt passing a single long line of riders. Safety first, follow the rules of the road and ride defensively. When stopped, remember to gather off the road, well clear of traffic. We all share the road.
Post ride there is a great lunch special in O’Donnell’s. Oh, beer too.
I’ll be back for the Tuesday ride on March 26.
Wishing you a great ride,
John
