Monday Night Beginner Rides start APR 27
Starting April 27th until about July, Mike McCarney will be leading a "beginners group ride" for MIVA. Come on out for our Monday night beginner rides. We will meet at the NE corner of the parking lot at the NAC (Aquatic Center), departing at exactly 6pm (don't pull up at 6:01pm), riding about a 20km route out Jingle Pot.
These rides are at an easy going pace (20-24km/hr) and have a strict no drop policy. If you come out and hammer off the front you will buy "beverages" for the group afterwards:) Until further notice, we will ride the same 20k route so that riders get familiar and comfortable with the route. This is the proposed route for now http://www.gmap-pedometer.
We will instruct riders on how to ride safely and responsibly in a paceline configuration. This will be explained and practiced so that everyone gains skills and confidence in group riding. Each week different riding techniques and skills will be introduced.
Participants must be members of MIVA and Cycling BC (any license/membership). Cycling BC allows for 2 trial rides before commit to a membership. The form is Trial Ride Release of Liability Waiver, please have this signed and bring it with you to Mike for the start of the ride.
