All B-STS participants should be graduates of the B-SIG or experienced B-level riders; the B-STS is NOT an instructional ride series. <em>Your participation is conditional on your ability to demonstrate safe and steady riding skills</em>.

(we may have other speed groups, too - <em>to be determined</em>)</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:16px;"><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Important information is shared during the pre-ride remarks, and it is necessary to be present at the start of the ride. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:16px;"><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">We would urge you to find your best-fit peer riders in the initial weeks, and stay within that group. This will enable you to be comfortable with your partners, and to develop cohesiveness within your group, which is one of the goals of the series. If you intend to go ìoff the frontî if the group is not keeping up with your pace, just let the ride leaders know when you make that decision.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:16px;"><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Our rides will start off easy (flat + short), than gradually progress in mileage and degree of difficulty. Rest stops will be kept to a minimum, in both number of stops and their duration.
