Confirmations and gear

Visit timing: This week

Tuesday, Aug 4, 1:15 PM · The session is close enough to prep for now, but there is still time to tighten one or two details before travel day.

  • Confirm Tuesday 6:15 AM - 7:30 AM is still open to visiting athletes before you leave.
  • Double-check the exact entrance, locker-room, or front-desk step before travel day.
  • Confirm whether the visitor fee is still $6 and how the club wants payment.
  • Helmets and self-supported road-riding experience are expected.

Visitor notes

Check the posted route sheet before you show up because the group splits into two pace lines. Helmets and self-supported road-riding experience are expected. Guests should arrive 10 minutes early for the waiver and pre-ride brief.
