Two friendly reminders:
Please single file. Even on the bike path. Even if you are a (now very embarrassed) volunteer.
When one of our riders fell on Saturday, many of you stopped to help. That is so great. We thank you for your kindness; that’s what the RAC is all about. Please make sure we don’t block the bike path when we attend to a rider.

Question: How do we deal with fluctuating temperatures on a typical RAC day?
Answer: You wear layers and shed them as the day warms up.
Example: The Wynola morning is often very cold. Wear sweatpants, sweaters (under your vest, or course), scarves, and gloves. Within one hour, you will not need all these items anymore. Leave your extra layers in chase cars as you pass them. Make sure you label your clothes. Retrieve your items at the end of the day.
For more information on ‘what to bring during the day’, attend the mandatory March 16 meeting.
