For visitors
Not for newcomers to group riding. The slower Bridge Ride follows the same route 5 to 10 minutes later. Bring water and food, and a helmet.
First time on this ride? Here’s the drill
- Bring
- a helmet, water, a spare tube or patch kit, a way to pay for the stop.
- Arrive
- Ten or fifteen minutes before 8:30 am. Tell whoever's leading that you're new.
- Pace
- Expect 20–22 mph on average: fast — for riders who race or train. It's a drop ride: if you can't hold the pace, you'll finish alone. Fine if you know your speed. Not a first ride.
