Daylight Savings Time 2010 Ride Schedule

Time changes this coming Sunday (14 Mar 2010). . .with the extra hour of sunlight, we resume our weekly rides in (mostly) daylight. . .

My 2 cts. real briefly:

• If you show at a posted ride, you are acknowledging that you intend to do the ride posted. . .If you have other needs, post an alternative instead of disrupting the posted ride, please. . .

• DST rides get pretty big so we must be careful as groups ALWAYS to obey traffic laws and just practice good safety. . .Honor the safety of yourself, your fellow cyclists, and motorists. . .

• If you have anything to do other than riding (chatting, taking off extra clothing, finding food to eat in your pocket, etc.), please move carefully to the back of the pack and take care of business. . .If you have a flat or mechanical, let the group know. . .If you hear anything from the back of the pack, please pass it up until we know the front riders know!

• Know the routes (I am posting as many on my blog as I can: [ http://bicyclelust.blogspot.com/ ]http://bicyclelust.blogspot.com/; let me know if you want a route added), carry a phone, and be prepared. . .

• Watch for emails, give some respect and appreciation to our ride leaders. . .We have a schedule but any ride can change (start times, places, etc) at the discretion of the leader (weather, etc). . .Rides may start before 6 pm until daylight extends so watch for details, but most should move to a 6 pm start when possible. . .

RIDE SCHEDULE:

MONDAY

WEDNESDAY

THURSDAY
