The Saturday Ride is a blend of the 4 categories of cyclists above
If a cyclist is falling off the pace, another rider should join that rider and escort them back to home base i.e. Beloit Bicycle Company, 110 W. Grand Avenue – map the location.
The decision as to the route to ride for that day is a “group decision”
We strongly encourage the use of helmets.
Riders are encouraged to bring cell phones, hydration beverage, spare inner tube and means to fill it (pump, CO2), blinking lights, and high visibility clothing on every ride
Riders are required to follow the “rules of the road” i.e. observe stop lights, stop signs, use hand signals & ride in single file when appropriate
Sharing of stories, good, bad, or indifferent, is encouraged.
All rides start and end in the rear parking lot of Beloit Bicycle Company, 110 W. Grand Avenue – map the location.
