*Calling All Riders – We Need More Ride Leaders!*
In many cycling clubs, leadership rotates so that everyone shares the
responsibility. At CVC, we’ve been relying on just a few members, and now
it’s time to spread the load and grow our leadership team.
You might be thinking:
*“I can’t do this. I don’t know where to go. I don’t know HOW to lead.”*
That’s where we come in. *We’ll help every step of the way!*
-
*Training:* Kent will be hosting a Ride with GPS/Zoom training
soon.Contact me if you would like to attend on October 5th
-
*Resources:* Our Ride Director, Jerry, is an expert at creating and
finding routes. Plus, most are already on our Ride with GPS site.
-
*Support:* We’ll provide guidance on route planning, safety talks, and
even ride shadowing until you’re comfortable.
-
*Flexibility:* Lead shorter or simpler rides to start. You don’t need to
be the fastest—many leaders lead from the middle!
-
*Community:* Plan a coffee stop or lunch afterward—it’s a great way to
make the ride social.
Our *Safety Committee* is also preparing tips to help you feel empowered
and confident both as a rider and a leader.
👏 Shout-out to *Mellow Yellow* for their rotating leader calendar! We’d
love to see other groups follow that model.
👉 *We especially need leaders for the Sunday Social Ride and Saturday Gold
Rides.*
Please reach out to me or Jerry if you’d like to give it a try. Together,
we can build a stronger, safer, and more connected CVC!
