NOVICE Ride - Saturday, Dec 27 - 8AM Start

Get ready to roll into the weekend with holiday cheer and perfect riding weather! Tomorrow’s forecast brings us mid-60s temps and wind approx 10–13 mph wind from the SSW/SW (well, this is as of now! 🤞🏻😉)

Hydration Alert!

Even though it’s cool, don’t let your water bottle hibernate! Start sipping today (Friday) so you’re sparkling with energy for Saturday’s adventure. 💧✨

Ride Schedule:

🕗 Rollout: 8:00 AM sharp

🎅 Arrival: Be at the parking lot by 7:45 AM for check-in and a quick pre-ride chat

Santa’s Little Reminders:

🎁 Make sure you’re registered online for all PBA rides.
🦌 Do your ABC check (Air, Brakes, Chain) before we dash away.
🅿️ New parking area at Gulledge—right next to the old one, but only about 20 spots. Arrive early for a sleigh-side spot! Overflow parking is still available in the old lot.

This Week’s Route:

🚴‍♂️ About 20 miles with a short break halfway through for some holiday banter.
🕊️ We’ll keep our usual Novice pace (11–12 mph), and as always, no one gets left behind!
