RIDES are the heart and soul of CRW, and RIDE LEADERS are its backbone. Our ride leaders are at the core of what makes CRW an outstanding bike club.
Have you ever thought about leading a ride with CRW? Do you have questions about what is involved? We are offering Ride Leader Training on April 16th from 7:00 - 8:30 PM for anyone who wishes to learn more about what it takes to lead a club ride.
CRW leads a huge variety of rides, from our signature weekend road rides to gravel, devo, women’s, multi-day adventures, centuries, weekly recurring rides, and more. It takes volunteers to develop the routes, secure a ride start location, and consider the details that ensure an enjoyable experience for our riders.
There are a lot of reasons to consider leading rides:
- You’re the boss! Leading rides means you get to do the kind of ride you like, including start location, pace, distance, destination, theme, social activities, etc.
- You can choose to lead a group at a specific pace or have people ride on their own.
- Pick a great spot for lunch, arrange for ice cream or other treats at the finish, and find other creative ways to make your ride interesting.
- Leading rides is also a great way to give back to the club. We’ve all benefited from others who are willing to organize, post to the calendar and lead rides for us, so if you’re looking for a way to give back, this is a great opportunity.
- Leading rides is a fun way to meet and make friends in the club.
Anyone who would like to lead any ride for CRW this season is required to attend this year’s ride leader training and complete subsequent ride leader training tasks. A recording of the Zoom session will be made available.
Oh, and did we mention that leading rides comes with benefits? You get to join century rides for free, there are great parties for ride leaders and the seasonal thank you gifts are amazing!
Limited offer! The first 25 CRW members to register will get a custom CRW water bottle. All who become ride leaders this year will also get an official CRW ride leader Halo head band.
Come join our family of ride leaders and make CRW an even better club!
This event is for CRW members only
Registrants will receive an email the day before the event with the link to the meeting.
