Goodbye to 2024 in Gig Harbor (Leisurely)

Let's meet at the Kimball Drive Park and Drive in Gig Harbor. Be there, ready to go at the time listed above. We will start with a required safety briefing, and roll out when that's done.  All riders must attend the safety briefing to participate.

True to my homeland's tradition (Germany), there will be doughnuts for New Year's at the end of the ride!

We will climb and descend hills at our own pace, and we will stay together. There are a lot of hills. I am slow on hills, so no worries about being left behind. We'll also limit our speed on any multi-use paths to the legal maximum (usually 15 MPH, occasionally 10 MPH).

Restrooms are available not quite 2 miles from the start and throughout the ride. Just let me know when nature calls. We will stop along the way for restrooms/water at mile 13.

Bring a spare tube and tools to fix a flat, just in case. Other things to bring: phone; ID; cash and/or credit card; water and a small snack. 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 or other unexpected events, the Ride Leader will cancel the ride and all registered riders will be sent a notification email. If the ride is cancelled at least two hours before the start, Ride Leader(s) will not be at the start location. Please check before leaving for the ride.

We hope you can join us!
