Coal City Cycles Intermediate Gravel Ride
9:00 a.m. 12:00 p.m.
This week we'll be meeting at the end of the Nanaimo River Road pavement
These are friendly, non-competitive, no-drop rides, meaning we'll regroup to make sure no one gets left behind. Routes can involve varied terrain ranging from gravel roads, single and double track, and occasionally some hike-a-bike sections. They are intermediate skill level and are best enjoyed on a gravel bike with tires 38mm or larger.
Rides can include remote areas without vehicle access or cell service. Riders are expected to be prepared for longer rides, carrying supplies for basic mechanicals, fuel and hydration.
These rides are limited to club members.
