Knock the Rust Off - MAKE UP DATE

Knock the Rust Ride - CHANGE UPDATE FOR 5 -7

Well once again the weather has been unkind. The parking lot at the church has many large puddles and it is not safe to do the skills portion of the ride. I am changing this to a lunch ride. We will meet behind Wendy's at 10:30 with kickstands up at 11:00. We will do a nice 1 hour ride to lunch at The Warped Wing in Springboro. After lunch we will reverse course and head back to the Keg. It is going to be on the cooler side so dress accordingly.

Ride Description:

We will start with a short group ride to the Crossroads Church parking lot. Bathrooms will not be available at the church so please go before we leave Wendy’s. Once there, coned courses will get us back in the practice of balancing, cornering, avoidance, and braking with each portion removing a bit more of the winter rust. Each of the courses are designed to be more difficult/challenging/enjoyable. After our practicing is complete, but way before we’re too tired to continue, we will have a group ride out to Springboro on paved country roads, allowing all to get reacquainted with “one-up” and “two-up” group riding. In Springboro we will stop for lunch at Warped Wing to refuel our bodies and to talk and laugh about our trip. After luch we will reverse direction and head back to the Keg
