Dear Parents,
Nice Job to everyone for completing your October requirements. The kids did really well on the road this past weekend. As of today you and your 5th grader should already have 73 miles logged. Keep up the good work!
A few reminders:
Please stay with your child unless you have made arrangements with another parent willing to watch your child. We’re still seeing kids on the road alone. That is a safety issue and should never happen
We do encourage the kids to pass while on the bike path. Great place to learn. However, we are seeing some unsafe passing. Please practice with your child and remind them to only pass when they have the space and when there are no oncoming cyclists (front or back) – scan and communicate
Be mindful of other cyclist on the bike path and trails. Everyone should be aware of their surroundings on the path just as you are on the road. We share the road.
Vests are expected to be in the week of November 14th. For those still waiting, someone from the Y will contact you when they arrive.

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.
Don't make the last ride of the month your only ride with us.
