DWC Members,

This weekend we are offering a pace-line clinic on Saturday in addition to the A/B/C DWC group rides. Please send Spencer an email TODAY if you want to do the clinic! 

IMPORTANT: For safety and legal concerns, DWC group rides, Time-Trials, and Criteriums are open to CURRENT DWC MEMBERS who have signed our Liability Waiver. All members are reminded that we are riding on open roads and you must obey traffic laws at all times.


5/12 Saturday Pace-Line Clinic

This Saturday 5/12 at 7:30 AM we plan to hold a clinic to go over how to ride in the two pace-lines we most commonly use: the bar-to-bar double pace-line and the single pace-line. The clinic is open to all riders; from beginners who want to learn how to ride in a group, to experienced riders who need to brush up on their skills.

What: DWC Pace-line clinic
Meet: Durango Community Recreation Center
When: Saturday, 7:30 AM — NEW TIME
Who: Open to all members of the DWC
Level: All levels are welcome
Pace: Slow and steady!
Route: Half-Valley (North on US 550, RT on Trimble Ln., RT on CR 250, RT on 32 ST, back to Rec. Center)
Description: A 10 minute talk followed by a trip around the south end of the valley to work on pace-lines. The clinic will be finished by 8:30 — you will have enough time to make it to the group ride at 9 AM.
