Details:
The rotating lesson will start promptly at 6PM. Please arrive with enough time to have you and your bike ready to go. A helmet is required and a flashing taillight is strongly recommended. We will be riding on quiet roads, but there will be cars and taillights help make you more visible. We will be riding in groups that match your pace level and no one will be left behind.

The group ride will follow the rotating lesson and we will break everyone up into estimated pace groups.

B Pace - 14-16mph (you fast folks who can complete the full legacy trail in under an hour)
B/C Pace - 12-14mph (if you can complete the full legacy trail in just a little over an hour)
C Pace - 10-12 (most likely those of you with flat handlebars or hybrid bikes)

Mileage of the ride will be dependent on your pace group. Options are 10 miles, 13miles, and 16miles. This route has rolling hills that can be challenging if you haven't ridden them before! Keep that in mind when deciding on your pace group.
