Hello, all
Just a reminder that Adventure Cycling offers discounted tours to GCC members, friends, and family on select tours. These are all tours within the United States, and the discount works like this: for every 4 registered riders on a tour, GCC gets one FREE registrations. That works out to be 20% off for each of 5 individuals who register together for a single tour. (Yes, we would all have to select and register for the same tour).
Not all Adventure Cycling Tours are included, but the list of tours included in this discount plan can be found here:
https://www.adventurecycling.org/landing_clubdiscount.cfm
Tours on the list include the C&O/GAP ride (DC to Pittsburgh), Texas hill country, Colorado wildflowers, and California wine country, among others. Keep in mind that some tours are intended for road bikes, but for others you will need a mountain or hybrid bike, due to off-road conditions.
Ride participants do not have to be GCC members, so you can get your family, friends, and coworkers to join a tour, but participants must follow special instructions when registering, using a GCC-specific link, in order to qualify for the reduced price. That's where I come in.
Please contact me at gillallyson@gmail.com or (352) 745-2011 for more info about specific tours, or general questions about touring.
We are fortunate that many GCC members are experienced cycle-tourists and can answer questions that you might have.
I'll be happy to arrange an informal get-together to talk about touring with Adventure Cycling this year, if there is enough interest.
Again, participants DO NOT have to be GCC members to register and qualify our group for the discount. So, please spread the word to your cycling family and friends, both within and outside Florida!
Regards,
Ally Gill
