Ladies, Let's Ride Sundays @9:30am 43 miles OMSI to Boring & back..

"Ladies only", sorry guys. Must be able to ride at least 14-16mph. Ride announced each week, and distance will vary between 20-60 miles in various areas. We are friendly and welcoming but please come ready to workout and challenge yourself. Wheels rolling at 9:30AM

Fuel for the Ride: Rides are likely to last 2-4 hours. Be sure to bring both water and snacks.

Ride Leader: Debra Rhea (debrarhea@comcast.net)

Route: http://ridewithgps.com/routes/6346606. 43 miles... We have had some hilly rides in the past several weeks. This ride is long but intended to give our legs a rest. Also good for those who may need to ride a shorter distance . The route is out and back you can just turn around and head back to your car if needed.

Post Ride: Almost post ride, we will take a break at Mike's Drive-in... Yummy, ice cream, milkshakes or whatever!

Weather Policy: This ride will only cancel for heavy rain, snow, ice and other conditions we do not like. Light showers are no big deal. Cancellations will be posted no later than 9:00 AM on the day of the ride. I will use this site for the weather forcast. http://forecast.io/#/f/45.5071,-122.7075

Required:

Personal identification including name, address and emergency contact is required of every rider

• Drop bar road bikes are required.

• Helmets must be worn at all times on the bike.

• Bring the correct size spare tube for the tires you are riding. If you get a flat, don't worry, we'll all lend a hand.

• Your bike must be in good working order. If you're not sure, stop by a local bike shop and ask a mechanic to look it over for safety and basic ride-ability

• Cell phone - never go on a ride without one!

• No ear buds or music please

Strongly recommended:

• Winter riding gear! We will be biking in the elements. Be sure to get the gear required to stay warm and dry. Extremities are especially vulnerable (head, hands, feet). Latex gloves for under or over your gloves... fingers warm up quickly & light to carry.

• Sun/riding glasses (protection yourself from the sun and little flying bugs that can wreck your vision in an instant!)

• Water: Bring some!
