PREPARATION
The weather forecast is for a hotday, remember to hydrate well in the days leading up to the ride and the day of the ride itself! We will have Skratch hydration mix and water at the rest stops (plus snacks of course!) .
The ride starts at 8:00 AM and it will be crowded! Give yourself plenty of time to park and get yourself ready.
We will have a few mechanics available at the start and at the rest stops for those last minute tweaks but remember to check your bike out before the ride and charge whatever devices need charging.
