Program: C Riders - Spring Ride OfferingsDo you want to go from riding in well spaced-out groups to a beautiful straight line, with a group of people who don't take themselves too seriously and are always out to have some fun?
Then join us for a Zoom meeting on February 3rd at 7pm to hear about our special C Rides planned for this Spring.
The various programs begin between the middle to end of March. Some continue until the end of Mayand others continue throughtout the year.
There will be several “Welcome New Member Rides” aimed at newcomers to the Club, the C-SIG, a Saturday and Sunday series of “STS”-style rides, and several “Explore Your City Rides.”
The Welcome New Member Rides and Explore Your City Rides, to be led by Linda Wintner, Jim Finder, and Julie Blackburn, will be relatively short rides with the focus on visiting interesting places and allowing riders to get to know one another and start to get back in shape for more challenging rides later in the season. Linda, Jim, and Julie will continue their rides on some weekends through the Summer and Fall.
The C-Sig will focus on teaching riders safe and competent group riding skills in a friendly and relaxed environment. You are expected to commit to attending the whole ride series. Each week new skills will be added week with a quick review of the basics from previous rides.
The STS-style rides, to be led by Jim Zisfein (Sundays) and Jerry Ross (Saturdays), will be a graduated series of rides, starting with a 30-mile relatively easy ride and working up longer rides over the next 6 – 10 weeks. There is no need to sign up for the entire series. The exact schedule and destinations for the STS rides is still being determined.
You have the option of participating in the Saturday or Sunday STS as your schedule allows. Please just don’t participate both days each weekend.
