ABC Riders - the temperatures tomorrow do not support an enjoyable extended morning ride. We are cancelling the ride for tomorrow. We will continue to look for future opportunities to offer a Saturday ride - there may still be a few warmer Saturdays left this season!

ABC Riders,
Colder days are back! The forecast shows 40's to low 50's during the ride. Please note the change in our start time: we will be starting at 9:00AM this Saturday.
This is borderline too cold (for me) - any changes of the forecast for the worse and we'll cancel the ride.
This week Randy and I settled in on a ride out to Creston from Green Leaf Park. As usual, we have two distances to offer. Randy may not be able to lead the shorter route this weekend - any volunteers to fill in if needed?
The routes share the first 23 miles, so you can wait until then to decide your final mileage.

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
