IMPORTANT

 

CRW Rides are open to members and limited guests. Guests may only attend two rides before joining.
All riders (both Members and Guests) must REGISTER

Register here: https://www.crw.org/memberrideregistration?rid=8982&date=

If a rider has not pre-registered, that rider must do so online at the start of the ride. 

The online registration will include a liability waiver that all riders will need to review and accept. 

The online registration will also require all riders to review CRW’s Safety and COVID Guidelines and to agree to follow those guidelines on the ride.

 

Just show up, introduce yourself to others, find someone to ride with and agree on the rules of the ride. Then, off you go.

Join Event on Strava to let others know you will be there. This will consolidate all responses in one visible place.

It is surprising how many beautiful quiet neighborhood streets we can explore on this urban route. Bonus sprint training on the many stop lights & signs.

Brunch or lunch option after ride at Trident Booksellers & Café.

Use club Slack channel #ride-social to discuss this event further:

Get comfortable with car traffic. Take the entire road lane on many sections as needed. Use bright head & tail lights. Watch for Green line train tracks, especially around Cleveland Circle.

Meet on side walk near Papa Wheelies bicycle shop.

Take a short cut at 17km to avoid a big hill & scenic loop around Weston Reservoir. Continue on South Avenue after crossing I-95 to connect with the loop shortly after on the way back. That will reduce the distance by about 10km.
