This event is cross-posted to Lake County Cycling Collective and Bicycle Club of Lake County. Please only RSVP to a single event.
It's spring and time to start getting those legs moving toward whatever long distance riding goals you have; whether a century or just improving over how many miles you rode last year.
This is a "no drop" ADVANCED BEGINNER TO INTERMEDIATE RIDE.
Faster riders can ride off the front but they are on their own. We will regroup at major intersections (stoplights).
While no one will be dropped outright, you should be able to maintain a 12+ MPH AVERAGE speed.
If you invite and bring non-member guests, YOU are their ride leader. It's your responsibility to marshal your guests and stick with them.
If you are uncertain if you can maintain this speed over the course of the ride, please contact me to discuss your concerns.
Road, race, fitness and solid fork hybrid bikes are your best weapon of choice on this ride. We do not recommend any bikes which incorporate front, or rear, active suspension. Knobby tires are not your friend on this ride.
A HELMET IS MANDATORY for all Lake County Bicycle Group rides. Also required, a working and properly maintained bicycle that will allow you to travel the distance and pace you have elected to ride.
As 'situational awareness' is critical to safe bicycling, EARBUDS, EARPHONES and LOUDSPEAKERS will NOT be ALLOWED on this ride.
You should also bring the normal accoutrement; (ID with Emergency Contact and insurance card(s), spare inner tube, pump, etc.), proper attire based on the weather forecast, water, sunscreen, sunglasses, money for food and/or beverage, a bicycle lock and a good attitude!
Feel free to contact me with any questions. Please make certain you have "email communication turned on" in your meetup account settings.
