Retro Velo RIdes

The Retros are a group of LBC members that ride Tuesdays and Thursdays.   Rides may be inside on trainers on Zwift (when weather is a factor) or outside.  Ride with GPS routes will be included in the forum message/information. 

**Information on each ride will be posted in the Retro forum. Members must go to the Forum page and click on Retro Forum to opt in as well as update the settings if you would like to receive the forum messages via email as opposed to logging in and checking the forum messages.  

Start location----varies 
Distance -- varies
Start time ---usually 10am unless hot or cold weather is a factor.
Pace---14 mph up to 18 mph depending on who shows up and what group decides. This is a no drop ride with several regroups to accommodate all riders.

Weekly Rides are for club members only. a non-member may participate in one free ride before joining and must prior to the ride, sign a "non-member one ride waiver" found in the drop down options once clicking New Member Signup on the home page.

Please plan to arrive 15-20 minutes prior to the start time. Rides include water breaks as needed and a short rest break(s). Please Note: If you join the ride late/mid ride or leave the ride early/race off the front to not be seen, you are no longer officially part of the ride and all insurance coverage is voided. 

Inclement weather. Leaders have the discretion to cancel or delay the start of a ride due to inclement weather or other unexpected conditions. In addition, the leader may, upon arriving at the start location, determine that riding conditions are unsafe and cancel the ride.

Helmets are required
, headsets are prohibited, and please carry identification and emergency contact information.

Rules:
NO RACING- LBC rides are not race rides as the club does not carry insurance for racing. Aggressive and dangerous riding is prohibited.
We encourage fitness building and pacing for improvement to push your fellow cyclists, but acts of aggression putting anyone at risk on the highway is prohibited for the safety of all. For example, attacking/surging from the back of the pace line to the front causing riders to be 3-4 or more across the road breaking up a double pace line inhibiting cars from passing safely. Another example is any time a rider crosses the left hand yellow line to pass. Please keep the pace line as far to the right hand side of the road as safely possible.

**SPRINTING, ATTACKING, ROLLING STOP SIGNS AND RIDING MORE THAN 2 ABREAST ACROSS THE ROAD (other than when riders rotate off the front safely and briefly) IS NOT PERMITTED OR TOLERATED ON ANY LBC RIDE.

Any rider observed to be attacking, rolling stop signs, riding more than 2 abreast or not following the Kansas State cycling statues https://www.ksdot.org/bureaus/burRail/bike/BicycleStatutes.asp will asked to not participate in club rides. Actions may result in dismissal from LBC membership.
