All riders must wear helmets. Riders should have the route with them and carry food & water, tire repair supplies, etc.
This is a no-drop ride and we typically ride a B pace, averaging 16-18mph on paved roads and slower on gravel. If there is a large difference in rider speed the fast riders may go ahead and we will regroup after significant climbs and before significant turns.
The challenge is intended to come from the terrain, not the pace. Steep climbs are normal feature of our dirt roads. If the pace isn't working for you please speak up, we will adjust the pace.
You must be familiar with gravel riding and use an appropriate bicycle. E-bikes are welcome but those riders should not dictate pace. Gearing of at least 1:1 is recommended.
