Great day on the bike!

Sunday Ride April 26
What we do best: End a great ride over coffee!

Thanks to everyone who came out today to ride with us. I think we counted 33 riders as we were leaving … I hope every rider got the ride they wanted, and we would love to see you out again.

Just a reminder of the two rules we have for the Beez rides:

  1. No passing on the right. Ever.
  2. We do not drop anyone. Some delays may occur because of this but it is the safest way to ride as a group.

Looking forward to a summer of riding!

And don’t forget: Wednesday rides are starting this week! Meet at 5pm at Kelowna Cycle. Conversational 35km ride.

Special Ride: Armstrong Friday April 3 – It’s ON!

Tom is inviting everybody to join our first “special ride”: We will be meeting at 9:30am in the Armstrong Memorial Park on Friday, April 3.

If the weather is too wet, we will make the decision to cancel by 7:30am the same morning, and a post will be published here on the blog to inform you of the decision. In that case, the ride will be rescheduled for Monday, April 6.

The route will be 75 km or more, if people are interested. The terrain is usually rolling hills and flats. Lunch will be at the Armstrong Anchor Inn following the ride.

Please carpool! Send a comment or email if you’re looking for a ride or can offer one ….

Update 7am: The ride is ON! See you in Armstrong. Bring an extra layer …
