Dear Parents,
Thank you all for attending the Safety Ride and fulfilling your training requirement. And kudos to those who came more than once.
Just a reminder, you must attend at least one qualifying monthly ride with the group. Riding with the group every weekend is highly recommended. You will be better trained, more conditioned for longer rides and hills, and much happier during the week of the RAC. Don't wait until the last ride of the month to ride with the group.
This Sunday's Ride is your last opportunity to fulfill your monthly ride requirement. Please check out the ride details on the website.

Hydration - As the rides increase in distance please be sure to have plenty of water. This may be a good time to start looking at Hydration Packs/Camel Baks.
Looking ahead: February 15. The Camp Pendleton Ride
This ride takes us from Oceanside to San Clemente and back and it's a lot of fun. We all need a permit for Camp Pendleton, and we cannot apply online anymore. We have to go to Oceanside in person, during their visitor's hours. https://www.pendleton.marines.mil/Base-Access/Recreational-Bicycling/ Minors can go with a registered parent.
