Confirmations and gear

Visit timing: This week

Tuesday, Aug 4, 10:15 AM · 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 - 7:45 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 $0 and how the club wants payment.
  • Check the route link before you show up because weekday rides can split on pace.

Visitor notes

Check the route link before you show up because weekday rides can split on pace. Helmets and self-supported road-riding experience are expected. Saturday ride leaves exactly on time after a short safety briefing.
