HERE IS THE RIDE SCHEDULE FOR THIS WEEK.
Many thanks for those who helped make the away ride to Palos Verdes a success.
Your bike chain is the one part that probably needs to be changed most often.
It’s also the part that can cause the most problems for your other parts like your
chain rings, cassette and derailleurs when it wears down, while making your shifting unpredictable. In general, most chains last between 2,000-3,000 miles. This number
varies depending on how clean you keep your drivetrain, the weather conditions you
ride in and your power output.
A chain checker is a fairly inexpensive tool that can determine the wear of your chain
Simply insert the tool in between the links. If it reaches 0.5% your chain still has life left.
If it reaches 0.75% it’s time to replace it.
Plans are underway for our next Away Ride.
Pub Rides are scheduled on Wednesdays with a rolling time of 5:30pm
Sheri has and continues to send out announcements with information for sign up.
This is your Pub Ride. join in, plan a ride, participate and have fun.
