NEW TUESDAY NIGHT RIDE

Look for a new weekly Tuesday Night Ride to leave from the Grand Haven Breakaway Bicycles store at the beginning of May!

The ride will be an easy rest day ride, about 25 miles, one group, no drops! We will try to keep the pace at less than 20 mph. Group riding is a great way to explore the sport of cycling even more!

Experienced riders will be in the group to give pointers on form and technique to help you enjoy the ride even more. Start time and ride maps will be posted at Grand Haven Breakaway Bicycles soon!

Hope to see you there!

MONDAY NIGHT LEADERS NEEDED

We are looking for people who will lead the B and C groups. The A group is basically a safe go as fast as the group can handle ride--we just need to be SAFE! The B and C groups need to have limits. The B group might max out initially at 18-19 mph. The C group needs to max out at 15-16 mph. If you are a ride leader and there are people not following these guidelines (ie going too fast), for the good of everyone on the ride, please ask them to ride in the next faster group the following week. The B and C groups are supposed to be FUN! If you want to show off your stuff, ride in the A group. We want to have a welcoming environment where people know what to expect.
