Posting RBCImpromptu Rides It’s like throwing your own little bike riding party!
RBC Impromptu Rides • Offer an opportunity for Rochester Bicycling Club Club (RBC) members to post rides of their choosing at short notice up to 24 hours in advance of the ride start time, with an eye on the weather forecast. • May be posted weeks in advance. The farther in advance, the more likely more riders will see the post and participate. HOWEVER, posting a ride is a commitment to be there as stated. Rides should be cancelled only in extreme weather circumstances. next
Expanding Impromptu Ride Postings • To fill in dates where there are no rides on the Club Rides App calendar • To create more diverse ride opportunities on dates where ride selections are limited • To encourage all levels and types of riders to participate in any currently scheduled ride next
Impromptu Ride Characteristics • Average MOVING speed is predicted and posted Hillier/longer rides will likely slow the average speed – take this into account both when posting a ride and when choosing to participate in a ride Participating riders must choose carefully and should be able to maintain the posted speed • These are “WELCOMING” rides – also called “No DROP” rides Riders will re-group at major turns and significant intersections next
