For safety reasons, we encourage you to bring lights and of course, a helmet is mandatory. The beginning of the ride may be a bit dark as well as your finish and especially if you hang for the after-ride festivities. We also HIGHLY encourage foot retention. Additionally, we do not allow time trial nor triathlon bikes on these rides. Whereas we love our TT and Triathlon friends, there are too many situations where these bikes can be challenging in a group setting. Please be sure to ride within your ability and do your best to pair up with small groups or another person. This is meant to be a challenging ride but also social and not a race. Make some new friends and be supportive of each other. As mentioned in the past, there will be a handful of ride leaders out there to help where possible. Please always obey the ride leaders as they are experienced and have your best interest in mind!
POST RIDE ACTIVITIES - One More City VillageWe closed the street down in front of Rapha so you can arrive safely and take your time. There will be bike parking spots at the clubhouse from 3:00-6:00. After the ride, there will be beverages as well as live music by The Vaughn Cannon Trio. We will also have drawings for Rapha and other swag (you will get raffle tickets upon check in). Please feel free to invite friends and family to join the after-ride festivities. We will also have various Brand Partners on site with their products and services if you have any questions and want to learn more.
Reminder - Check in and coffee start at 7:45 and will end at 8:10 - Rollout will happen between 8:15-8:30 so please be ready.
