Question of the week: What goals have you set for 2019?
Now’s the time to set your cycling goals for 2019. Climbs not yet conquered, routes that seem too long, a PR that has eluded you. It’s ok to have some private goals that you attempt on your own. You can try these on your own schedule without scrutiny. Some goals are great for sharing. Your fellow riders may have the same ambitions, and it keeps you motivated to achieve the goal. No matter how long you have been riding, or if you think you will never PR again, we can all set attainable and challenging goals.
*When riding with us:*
· wear helmets and ensure your bike is in good working order
· stay in bike lanes and no more than two abreast on them; single file otherwise
· do not overlap wheels
· descend carefully! Look out for debris, animals, potholes, tight bends, and slick spots
· pass slower riders on the left
· ride predictably: signal when changing lines and call out hazards
· avoid bunching up
· respect all traffic rules and the rights of motor vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians
· Inclement weather policy: In the interest of safety, whenever it is either actively raining or the ride route has wet roads, it is our club policy to cancel a club ride. Club members may still choose to meet and ride in these conditions; however, the ride will not be considered an official club ride.
