TUESDAY morning rides (aka Tuesday 2-Wheelers or T2W) take place mid-April through October (weather permitting) and range in distance from 20 to 40+ miles. Club membership is not required, but it is encouraged.
Start times and locations change with the calendar. Start time is when bikes are expected to depart. Plan on arriving 10 to 15 minutes prior to the scheduled start for sign in and ride briefing. Consult the online BIC Calendar for each ride’s location and start time and to DOWNLOAD the GPS route file to your phone or bike computer. (Instructions here.) In case of inclement weather, the ride host will post the cancellation on the BIC Facebook Page at least two hours before the scheduled start time.
Tuesday rides welcome any rider comfortable with the distances we ride. It is not uncommon for riders to ride less than the full route, but tell the ride host if you plan to do that. Most T2W riders average 13-16 mph. Faster and slower riders will ride at their own pace. That includes the ride host, so it is important that all riders have access to the route map. Most T2W routes will have one or two scheduled rest/refuel stops at restaurants or convenience stores. There may be additional regrouping stops at the ride host’s discretion. Ride hosts will communicate this information prior to departure.
