Leading a ride is one of the most essential contributions you can make to our Club. After all, club rides are at the heart of what we do! Dreaming up unique, interesting and adventurous routes can be a delight; leading them can be even more fun! Remember that coming on a ride implies an informal contract. The leader provides the route and ride plan and gives guidance and support to help participants complete the route safely. The rider's job is to show up on time, follow the route and ride plan, maintain the listed tempo, and cycle safely and cooperatively by following the Rules of the Road.
We want to make it easier for you by providing training, guidance and even mentoring for our new ride leaders. Training occurs in the spring, but the Ride Leader Coordinator is available any time of the year - feel free to reach out. Your 2024 Ride Leader Coordinator is Marian Venturini, and you can reach me at venturmt@gmail.com. We also have the following information available:
