Social Rides are held on various days of the week and start a little later than our other club rides. The emphasis is on fun and food as opposed to speed and endurance. Mileage varies from 20 to 30 depending on participation and skill level. Average speed is usually 12 mph or less. This is the ride to build up your mileage base for longer or faster rides. Our rides and changes to them are announced via our Srider Yahoo Group. http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/sriders/ Please subscribe if you want up to date information on these rides. We are attempting to schedule an "S" Ride each Saturday, but there will be exceptions. The Saturday "S" Rides usually start from Open Road Bicycle on Hendricks Ave. at 9:00 AM. This changes regularly so watch emails for exceptions as we begin some rides on the westside.
The Wednesday "S" Rides will begin at the Imeson Rd. end of the Jacksonville-Baldwin Rail Trail at 9 AM. This ride goes to the TA Truck Stop in Baldwin for breakfast. If the weather prohibits participation, we meet at Denny’s for breakfast. Dennis will be the ride leader and Clyde will fill in when necessary. Dennis doesn't start a ride in the RAIN or if it's below 40 degrees or above 90.

A Word on Safety...
HELMETS ARE REQUIRED AS A MATTER OF CLUB POLICY. Bicycles are subject to almost all of the same rules as motor vehicles when on the road. Headphones are illegal under state law. All riders must sign a waiver to ride with the Club – NO EXCEPTIONS! When riding, please be predictable and courteous. For your safety and others, inform others in your group of your intended movements and don’t do anything suddenly.
