* Do you love bikes, biking, and bikers?
* Do you think you could love bikes, biking, and bikers if someone showed you the way?
Answer yes to either question and there's only one place to be on Sat, June 18th. The All Club Ride & Party!
Never before have all the area clubs come together for an all club ride and party... until now!
Arrive at 1pm to get situated. Stay on the farm and ride the extensive trail network. Or head off campus for some scenic road riding. Morning starts are welcome, but you'll be on your own. Organized group rides, with route leaders and no-drop policy, will form up based on ability and route length and depart by ~1:30pm.
Try something new! There will be both MTB and road demo/loaner bikes available.
What to bring:
* Your bike(s)
* Your favorite beverages
* Your camp chair, shade tent, blankets ... whatever'll make you comfy
* Some bucks to chip in ($5+)
Also encouraged:
* Chilled watermelon slices
* Chilled orange wedges
* Any other food you'd like to share
* Large Coolers
* Folding tables
What we'll have:
* Route leaders departing beginning at ~1:30pm on road & mtb rides of various lengths / difficulty levels. No drop. Beginner options.
* Route maps for the road rides
* Parking - carpooling encouraged
* Burgers, dogs, veggie burgers, pasta salad
* Loaner bikes for those without or who want to try something new
* Water, some beer, and lots and lots of ice
* A spot for each of the clubs to set up their tent & info table
We'll be firing up the grill late afternoon.
