Coffee House Ride- Drink Coffee Do Stuff


Details
Start: Drink Coffee Do Stuff - on Foothill Rd in South Creek Center
Ride Leader: Tim Sullivan
Approximately 13 miles, C rating
Description: It's predicted to be a warm day, so earlier start to beat the heat.
Old location (Bibo's), but new business (Drink Coffee Do Stuff). I haven't had a chance to check it out in person, but reviews are positive. This outfit has been around the Tahoe area for quite a while, and looks to have taken advantage of the old Bibo's location. We can hope for a better selection of goodies!
Outside seating in the front and back on this predicted warm and sunny morning.
We will be riding the neighborhoods on the west side of Virginia Street. Not too far but a bit on the hilly side.
E-BIKE NOTE: The ride leader is unable to handle e-bike mechanical issues (battery failure, flat tires, etc). Please have a backup plan for these events. Class 2 e-bikes are not permitted as they are not covered by club insurance.
RIDE SWEEP: Most of these rides will NOT have an official "sweeper." The ride leader will aim to regroup at certain points. We do not want to lose anyone; however, please note the ride levels (C).
Although anyone can attend most of these rides, ONLY official Pedaler members can attend breakfast rides! One of the perks of real membership.
RIDE SERIES DESCRIPTION: The Pedaler Coffee House Rides are designed for those who want a relatively easy, social ride, with the main goal of hanging out for good pastry and espresso after the ride. Most would be rated D/C and are fairly easy. We will depart from a different coffee house or bakery each time. Sometimes, when it warms up and we can start early, we will do breakfast rides.
NOTES: Check posting 2 hours before ride time for weather-related and other changes. Helmets are required and bikes should be in good working order. Please no ear buds or headphones. Be prepared with a spare tube and pump. Class 2 E-Bikes are not allowed.
Ride starting locations and start times vary, but details will be published on Meetup the weekend before the ride.
Please RSVP only if you ARE attending, DO NOT RSVP if you are not attending.
Helmets are required and bikes should be in good working order.
The ride leaves at the posted time. Please be signed in and ready to ride at that time.
Check the Meetup posting a couple of hours before the ride, to make sure that there are no changes.
