Saturday Longer / Faster Ride

ABC Riders,

 

==========  Please note the change in our start time: we will now be starting at 9:00AM Saturday due to the cooler morning temperatures and starting location. ===========


Last week we took on the Ramble Around Medina (RAM).  12 riders took on the 50 mile route and 5 riders the 75 mile route.

This week we will be riding our tribute to the ABC Roscoe Ramble ride.  Our very own Jim Birt has crafted two routes for us that were derived from the planned 2020 Roscoe Ramble.  Thanks Jim!


The routes share the first 18 miles, so you can wait until then to decide your final mileage.


We are expecting cooler temperatures Saturday so dress accordingly!

There are many changes to our approach to our club rides due to the pandemic.  Please read the attached MSWord document and be prepared to abide by and support these new rules.  The health and safety of our riders is our primary objective.


A few callouts:

 

  • We will not be passing out or sharing materials during the ride.  This includes cue sheets.  Please bring to the ride some means of following the route, either your bike computer or a printout of the cue sheet.  This week's cue sheets are attached.
  • And we will not be stopping as a group at any time for an organized, sit down food stop.  This is another CoViD thing.  To be safe, bring any hydration / nutrition you anticipate needing.  If needed, we can stop at a convenience store or gas station to get additional supplies.

 

See you Saturday,

Joe & Randy
