RIDE DESCRIPTONS:  Click on your selected route link to see ride description on the RWGPS map.  Always ensure you have the route and are fully self-sufficient to complete the ride on your own.  Have the ride leader's cell number so you can communicate if you have a mechanical or if dropped.

PARKING CONSIDERATIONS:  Parking is available at the start.  Park in the grass field, not in the gravel lot at the brewery.

WEATHER:  We do not plan to send out any cancellation emails, so decide for yourself if the conditions are safe for riding.  You always have the option of starting at a different time or do the stage on a different day.  If the ride leader decides not to ride due to weather they won’t show up & it will be up to you to decide if you want to do the ride on your own at the scheduled time or a later time. Always check the calendar for last-minute updates!

HYDRATION, NOURISHMENT AND AVAILABILITY OF RESTROOMS: Porta-potties available.  Bring water & snacks.  Stay afterwards and treat yourself to lunch and a brew at Mills River Brewery!

EQUIPMENT: Helmets and water bottles are mandatory. Have the route on your bike computer, phone, or printed cue sheet. Front facing headlights and rear blinking lights are highly recommended for this ride and required on the Blue Ridge Parkway unless appropriate reflectors are attached. Your bike must be equipped with the necessary lights or reflectors in accordance with applicable North Carolina and federal law and statutes governing bicycles. You should be fully self-sufficient for repair of flat tires or small mechanical issues.

NOTE: All rides leave promptly at the time stated. Give yourself enough time (at least fifteen minutes) to get your bike unloaded and all geared up!  Always check the calendar for last-minute updates!
