The RAC this Week (Oct 10th)

Dear Parents,

Please keep tracking your miles and rides.  Every rider in your family must attend a Safety Ride (Adult and Child). There are 2 more: October 12 and October 20.

Attendance

  • If you don’t mark the attendance sheet, the ride doesn’t count. No exceptions! If you do not complete one group training ride in the month of October, or you do not attend a Safety Fun Ride, you will be dropped from the RAC. Don’t wait until the last qualifying ride or last ride of the month

  • Know your requirements. Visit the website: https://www.rideacrosscalifornia.com/registration-requirements

Training Rides - Please Stay with your Child

  • If you're child is much faster than you, ask your child to slow down or please find another family or adult willing to take responsibility for your child.

  • If you are faster than your child, ride with your child. This is about the 5th graders and the wonderful bonds you will all create with your children. Trust me, they will get better if you continue training together.

  • We are seeing too many kids without parents. We will soon leave the safe and predictable bike path. Kids on the road without parents is never a good thing.

Don't forget:

  • vest

  • helmet

  • water

  • name tag (if your name is not on your vest)

  • snack

  • extra tube for your tire (and a wrench unless your wheel has a quick release)

  • sun screen

  • 15 minutes early. You need to unload your bike and we leave on time.

  • be respectful to volunteers and follow their lead

  • know the route

  • Have Fun!
