The Thursday Night Area Rides begin June 19th. Ride destinations depend upon the volunteers we get to participate in leading the rides.
Please inspect your bike before taking off. It is especially important to do a pre-ride inspection this time of year. Remember the acronym “T-CLOCK” for your inspection. You should inspect your bike every time before you ride.
T – Tires and Wheels
C – Controls
L – Lights
O – Oil
C – Chassis
K – Kickstand
Now, are you ready for a group ride? Make sure you are mentally and physically prepared before any ride. Always remember the following in a group ride setting.
- Group riding requires a high level of awareness and concentration.
- Know your limits and always ride within your abilities.
- Come prepared: Full tank of gas, empty bladder and appropriate riding gear.
- Arrive at the starting location early so you can hear the pre-ride instructions
Ride in a staggered formation, 2 seconds to the bike directly ahead of you and 4 seconds to the bike in front of that. - Watch a few bikes further up the road and do not become focused on the bike in front of you.
- Ride at a constant speed to eliminate the “rubber band” effect.
- Riding side by side is dangerous and illegal.
- Never come up on the bike in front of you or beside you.
- If your bike misses a turn, stick together and the leader will get you back on track. The rider on the outside of a turn must give room to the rider on the inside of the turn.
We look forward to seeing you at the Area Rides. Times and destinations will be announced and posted at the Sawmill Creek Lodge. Remember that we NEVER cancel an Area Ride. Four wheel vehicles are perfectly acceptable in poor weather however, ATV’s are not legal on the roadways. See you Thursday night!
