• This ride is ideal for those who are on a time budget on Saturdays or Sundays.  We keep start time, and start location the same every Saturday and are consistently back at the Chevron station by 10:30am (unless we stop for a mechanical issue).  Because time is of the essence on this ride we leave at 7:30am sharp.  Please by ready to ride by then.
  
• There are usually 10-15 riders on the ride during high season (7-10 during low season).
  
• Our drop policy is:  We regroup at all turns.
  
• The pace will significantly increase during the last 4-5 miles of the ride with surges near 28mph.  Given this, it is wise that all riders are self sufficient mechanically, as some (including myself) are sometimes dropped during these last few miles.
  
• Please be aware that the early morning start time for this ride means we ride at a time when low sun angles increase the danger of being on the road.  The route is designed to mitigate this, however it is recommended that you have some supplemental lighting on your bike for the ride.
• All the usual club safety rules apply on the ride including helmets (yes) and headphones (no).
  
• It is great that the owners of the Chevron allow us to use their parking lot.  Lets all remember to respect their property and be careful not to block traffic going in and out of the station.:
• We all have a lot of fun and a lot of laughs during this ride.  Come try us out!
