I haven't been able to make it to a decent social ride in a long time, so I thought I should remedy that and put one together.



The route will be as follows: meet @ Wooten Elementary (1406 Dale

Austin, TX 78757), and go back through the neighborhoods to adjourn at the plaza at Gregory Gym, on campus. It's a six mile ride on quiet roads, mostly with bike lanes, no especially difficult hills or steep grades, so any experience level is welcome to join. If anyone wants to ride further, we can extend the route to the Capitol building for anyone who hasn't taken the time to tour the grounds yet.



The ride will "officially" conclude at the Capitol building, though if it strikes your fancy, you are welcome to follow my host partner and I back to the starting point, where we'll be providing a cozy spot to recuperate, have a drink, take a potty break and socialize.



This ride will be mostly after sundown, so please bring your lights and make yourself easy to see! Power in numbers helps, but every light counts :)



I can provide general/low-urgency first aid, and will be packing a kit. I'll identify myself as the ride leader so you'll know who to go to in case you need help.



So that's it. Bring it!



P.S. THERE WILL BE NO SUCH THING AS TOO COLD
