For visitors

A 40-and-over group; the Meetup page says so. Oct 7 starts at the Harms Woods North lot; from Oct 14 the start is Moretti's lot on Dempster. Helmet required. Bring a headlight, since the North Branch Trail is dark in the woods. Check the Meetup page the day of the ride for cancellations. Running late: head north on the trail and you will catch the group.

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 the meet time. Tell whoever's leading that you're new.

I do the miles. You decide who they’re for.

In 2027 I ride 10,000 miles, all on the bike, every one of them for queer communities. You pledge a few cents a mile and pick which org it goes to. It starts January 1.
