Reminder: Annual Watermoo Juniors Lead-Out

[Laurens De Jong]

Hello, parents, youth and juniors!

There are a few juniors who have responded, just not as many as the number I had in mind. 

1. If you're worried about the ride being gravel: the gravel section is short and extremely rideable on any bike.
   
   
2. Any bike: you can ride on a mountain bike, a road bike, a BMX bike, whatever bike you have. This ride is not a race, it's a fun ride.
   
   
3. That means that anyone can join. If you have a friend who is of junior age, they are welcome to join. I would ask that they sign a waiver.

Details below. I am looking forward to seeing the number of riders I had in mind. Allez AAVC!

• Arrive at Jolly Pumpkin in Dexter - 2319 Bishop Cir E, Dexter, MI 48130 by 6:45am
• Be on the start line at 7:00am. Race starts at 7:11am
• The juniors will lead out the group for 1.4 miles and then peel off to the side of the road (on Shield Rd) to let the peloton go by them. Usually the juniors have done this around 15mph. Wear your AAVC kit if you have one.
• Juniors will continue on a 12-mile ride that will make a stop at the Dexter Bakery for donuts and beverages (paid for by the race) before making their way back to Jolly Pumpkin. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/47900074
