Our Group Rides
  • Unless otherwise indicated, all rides will leave from the ride meeting place at the scheduled time.
  • As a courtesy to all members, it is important to be ready to leave at the departure time.
  • All bikes should be fueled and bladders emptied ahead of time.
  • We plan a variety of rides. Curtis and Randall McGalliard set up the rides. When weather is an issue one of them will say if it is a go or no go. Or who ever is in charge of that days ride.
