![]() In our continuing tradition of riding and eating, Strays will ride
about 18 miles on the Gainesville Hawthorne
Trail on Tuesday evening November 28,
weather cooperating, followed by $2
hamburger /
sausage-sub night at Market Street Pub.
Meet at 5:15 PM, at the grass parking lot,
at
the intersection of 234 and the Gainesville Hawthorne Trail, for
a 5:30 departure.
Full legal lighting is required for this ride. A white headlight of
minimum
3 watts or equivalent, a blinking or steady red tail light, and a passive
red
rear reflector (most blinkys are also passive red reflectors). Other
reflective
materials/lights are advisable and recommended. No speed limit, this is a training ride, but mostly
hanging around 12 - 13 mph.
There will be a convenience store / rest room stop at the mid point in
Hawthorne.
For those who don't want to ride, or can't, but want to join us for
the
food, we usually make it to MSP at about 7:15-7:30.
Helmets are REQUIRED on all
Strays
rides, mirrors recommended, headphones
forbidden.
Safety protocols are always observed on Strays
rides
