Hello,
The Slaydy Ride is on for Monday night, trail conditions permitting. With all of the rain we had, we may or may not be able to ride the Glasgow side or the Hydrocut. I will communicate by 4pm what the plan is:
- Plan A: Meet at Glasgow to ride
- Plan B: Meet at Glasgow, but ride the service road and hydro corridor to bypass Glasgow
- Plan C: Ride at Puslinch tract (Map to parking lot)
The ride will leave from the trailhead @ 6:00pm.
Please feel free to bring a beverage and stay for the post-ride social.
Ride Details:
- The ride is leaving at 6:00pm, unless otherwise communicated. Try to arrive at least 5-10 minutes earlier to make sure you and your bike are ready and to get organized into your ride group.
- Groups will be divided according to pace. There will be a pre-assigned leader for each group. (Typically we split into 2 to 4 groups, depending on the number of participants.)
- Please sign-up for the ride in advance. This will allow us to plan for the number of groups needed as well as provide current emergency contact information. A new form will be made available each week.
- All participants need to be in good health. We will follow public health guidelines.
- All riders need to have a bike in working order, wear a helmet and be self-sufficient in terms of tools, tubes, water and snacks.
- Don’t forget to wear insect repellent.
- Special thanks to Ziggy’s Cycle for sponsoring the rides!
Memberships:
For insurance reasons, all riders need to hold a valid Ontario Cycling membership. Waterloo Cycling Club membership required unless participating with an Ontario Cycling Day Pass. (Note: Although this ride is hosted by Ziggy’s Cycle, Ziggy’s Cycle is not a registered club with Ontario Cycling.)
Group Communication:
- Email List: If you wish to be contacted about the rides via email, please send me a note and I will add you to our google group.
- WhatsApp: Ride communications are also made over our WhatsApp chat. This group is also a great way to connect with other riders outside of our weekly rides. Send me your phone number if you would like to be added to our WhatsApp chat group.
Looking forward to our ride!
Jo
