JAX bikes! Jax Hikes!

Where? JAX is huge. The goal is to crowdsource . For bike rides -lower traffic zones and areas , w the intent group members crowdsource “good rides” and always always somewhere Safe.
Experience?
Hikes - all welcome
Bike rides - This is not* for beginning riders who have not been in traffic before
This is *not*:
-a group for marathon runners/cyclists or triathletes looking to train
-for rides- a group someone can learn to ride a bike for the first time. Please practice somewhere safe and come back once you’ve developed some skills.
-suitable for anyone < 18 years old. We cannot have junior riders.
Legal and safety stuff:
-visibility/gear: you are responsible for outfitting yourself w safety gear for any day any time of year. if the hike is early and it’s cold- a jacket. If a ride starts early in the day or end later, it is important that cyclists have appropriate high visibility, clothing, and or lighting
-experience level: for rides, 👆 a proficiency of safe biking in traffic * is expected.
-joining the group is completely voluntary. founders, meetup, etc is not responsible for any harm,theft, or loss that comes to riders of any type. You take the risks of riding in and around traffic on city streets by joining.
