Please note: During COVID-19 restrictions, all Free Group Rides are limited in the number of allowed participants. Registration for the ride (using the red “Register Now” button above) is REQUIRED to participate. If you decide not to ride, please click the "Cancel My Registration button above so that an additional spot will be made available to another.

Face coverings (for mouth and nose) are required when the group makes extended stops. Face coverings are recommended for the duration of the ride. Please bring personal hand sanitizer,  disinfecting wipes and tissues for use at rest stops.

We will observe current social distancing guidelines when off the bike, and strive to maintain at least 10-12 ft separation between riders when on the bike.

Join us for a ride from Ron Regis Park on a 26 mile route at Steady Pace (12-14 mph).

My third ride as a Ride Leader! Start at Ron Regis Park, out along Cedar River Trail about 8 Miles. Over to Hobart, with some hill climbing! Then back down the Cedar River Trail - long, gradual descent for about 13 Miles! Prepare for hardpack gravel for first 5 miles on this part of the Trail. Scenic opportunities may occur, if folks want a photo stop, let me know. May even see an eagle along this route! 

Let's meet at the Ron Regis Park at 10:45 for our pre-ride safety briefing, with a departure at 11:00.

We will climb and descend hills at our own pace, and regroup at top of hills. We'll also limit our speed on any multi-use paths to the legal maximum (usually 15 mph).

Temporary restroom (Portapotty) is (currently) available at the start. We will stop along the way for restrooms/water as needed and when available. 

Bring a spare tube and tools to fix a flat, just in case. Please have full fenders if the roads are wet, or you may be asked to ride at the rear of the group.

Note: If weather conditions meet the weather cancellation criterion listed above or if there are unforeseen hazardous riding conditions, the Ride Leader will post a ride-cancelled note in the Comments section below at least two hours prior to the start and Ride Leader(s) will not be at the start location.

We hope you can join us!
