No registration. Helmet, working bike and front and rear lights are required. Carry two bottles, a speedometer and a spare tube. Come early for the pre-ride safety talk.

First time on this ride? Here’s the drill
- Bring
- a helmet, front and rear lights (it's a dark-hours ride), water, a spare tube or patch kit, a way to pay for the stop.
- Arrive
- Ten or fifteen minutes before 6:30 pm. Tell whoever's leading that you're new.
- Pace
- Expect 12–14 mph: steady — you'll breathe hard on the hills. It's no-drop: if you fall off the back, someone waits. That's the point of a group ride.
- Check
- Look at their Facebook page the day of — that's where cancellations, weather calls and start changes get posted.
