The Club also has scheduled rides open to anyone. You
must have an approved helmet and it is a good idea to be self-sufficient with
water, spare tube and/or patch kit, pump and whatever else you think you may need.
If you don't know the route, tell someone so you won't get dropped in unfamiliar
territory.
