Night Ride!

OK, there are lots of things to like about October - pretty leaves, cooling temperatures, Halloween candy, Octoberfest beers .... but not the shortening daylight hours. So we're getting creative - it's time for night riding! Meet us at Town Cycle with your mountain bike, and be ready to ride at 6:30. We wait for no one, so please be on time! We'll ride at a moderate pace for about 2 hours. Rain will cancel our ride. We'll update here and on our Twitter page if canceled.

IMPORTANT - Make sure you've charged and tested out your lights - have something as a backup if you're unsure. Also make sure you have a rear flasher, as we will have one short stretch of road to ride to get to our destination. Please, please, PLEASE - don't be that person! Nothing ruins a night ride faster than riding in the woods in the dark with no lights. Forget the boogie man or the bears - those rocks and trees are going to reach out and grab you faster than you can say "Boo!" Mike does have lights available for sale at the shop, but don't expect to go in there on Wednesday at 6 to buy them, and then use them that night - they will need to be charged!

Any questions - email us here! info@teamtowncycle.com Hope to see you Wednesday!
