Meet your Ride Coordinator: Debbie is the current president of the NHCC and she also leads a variety of rides at different levels. She’s been with the NHCC for a number of years and has previously served as Secretary. Debbie helps shape the direction of the NHCC and always makes rides fun!
It's the first weekend ride of the 2019 season! We will start out with a route that offers three different distance options. Sunday looks very promising for weather (Sunshine and warmth!). We tend to start out together then break off into different pace groups according to ability. Our country roads are still a bit rough, so please be cautious.
What to expect for weekend rides:
- Rides vary in distance, as short as 35km or as long as 100km+ depending on the chosen route(s) for the day
- The pace is flexible on weekends—anticipated pace will be posted along with other details. There is a little less pace structure than evening rides
- Weekend participants should have access to a route map, either printed or available on your phone to refer to
- There is an expectation that you be prepared in the event of a flat tire—please have a spare tube and tire changing kit with you
- Always bring a few $$ in the event that the group stops at a convenience store etc.
- Participants who enjoy longer distances are welcome to leave Comments to coordinate some pre-ride extra kilometres before the ride's official start time, or to plan a ride extension afterward
IMPORTANT: Please leave a comment if you plan to ride on the weekend: Ride leaders work hard to be available and try to accommodate varied abilities on weekends. Leaving a comment lets the ride leader and others anticipate potential pace groups. Many people rely on the comments feature to assess whether to ride, especially if travelling a distance by car to the start.
Start time: 10:00 am
Ride leader: Debbie Parks
