Protocol:

  • Helmets required, no sudden lateral moves, call out hazards, call out mechanical problems, ride at a steady pace, …, ask for a mentor if you are new to group riding

  • Jam as hard as you like on the climbs, occasional sprint for fun, soft pedal for an in-flight regroup when we get separated

  • Regroup at the top of every major climb and every significant descent — everyone descends at their own safe speed

  • Pay attention to the regroup locations and don’t pass them if you wish to stay with the group

  • If you breakaway before the first regroup please be encouraged to wait at the first stop (if the wait is too long we will break the ride into two fragments: drop and no drop)

Bring two water bottles

Regroups: first regroup at the intersection of Woodside and Mountain Home; remaining regroups called out at each stop
