Hello Summit Bikers:
The following rules will be in effect to future notice.
-- Everyone must have a buff or face mask. Anyone not having a buff or face mask will not be permitted to ride with the group. This need to worn at the start and until there is a separation of at least 6 feet.
-- We will verify that we have a waiver signed from all participants and if not require one to be completed prior to riding. Most members did this when they paid their dues. We will have waivers available for those who did not or prospective riders who have not joined.
-- Riders need be at least 6 feet apart, maintaining social distancing.
-- Groups should be 10 or fewer.
Last week things worked well so lets keep it up.
Our next ride, June 8 will be between Idaho Springs and Georgetown and back. Be prepared to ride between 10 am and 10:30. Riders will be sent off in small groups. This ride is an out and back but there are some turns so new people should ride with someone. Identify yourself to me the day of the ride and we will take care of you. Meet at Courtney Ryley Cooper park (2350 Colorado Blvd). Idaho Springs built a parking lot in front of the park that will hold about 25 cars. Other parking is to the west on Colorado Blvd.
To get to the park from Summit County take exit 240 from I 70, and turn left onto 13th Ave. Turn right on Colorado Blvd and continue on to park (on the left). The drive takes about 45 minutes. Picnic to follow at the park after the ride. Please bring something to share with your friends as well as a sandwich and something to drink. We will not have a grill.
Riders are encouraged to use hand signals so others are aware of turns, stops and road obstacles. Riders are encouraged to wear name tags since there are many new people. Any name tag will do as long as it shows your name.
In case of a breakdown on the day of the ride call my cell number is 970-393-2190.
Ride safe and have fun!
John Bowyer
