++++++++++++++++++++ The Ride: Detail ++++++++++++++++++++ For your riding pleasure NoVA CBG presents: Tuesday Night Rides (TNR) B-Group Edition - Lazy Mikes

We'll start in Shirlington and do the Lazy Mikes W&OD OUT and BACK route!

• The B group will do an OUT and BACK to Lazy Mikes via the W&OD - 16 miles (ice cream optional).

It's UPHILL on the way out, but a glorious DOWNHILL on the way home!

This is the Medium level ride because we're going to keep a pace of 13-15mph on flat stretches (slower on hills) and the total distance is approximately 16 miles.

This is a NO DROP ride so you will not be left behind but you are expected to try to keep a B-Group level pace (NFT 15mph).

++++++++++++++++++++ The Meeting Spot: ++++++++++++++++++++ Shirlington Library 4200 Campbell Ave Arlington, VA 22206 GPS: [https://goo.gl/maps/GXU2cMAG7672](https://goo.gl/maps/GXU2cMAG7672)

We will meet directly in front of the library by the fountains.

++++++++++++++++++++ The Ride After The Ride: ++++++++++++++++++++ We’ll head to Samuel Beckett’s after the ride for a drink and food. We sit outside so we can bring our bikes and keep an eye on them. Join us if you like!

++++++++++++++++++++ Ride Level Chart ++++++++++++++++++++ NoVA CBG tries to accommodate all levels of cyclists by offering different types/levels of rides. We just ask that you come to the ride that suits your current riding ability the best.

• Introductory Level: If you haven't ridden a bike in a number of years (or are uncertain of your abilities on a bicycle). • Beginner Level: You can ride for 10+ miles at a pace of 10+ to 12+ mph with potentially minor hills involved. • Medium Level: You can ride for 20+ miles at a pace of 13+ to 15+ mph with potentially moderate hills involved. • Advanced Level: You can ride for 20++ miles at a pace of 15+ mph with potentially major hills involved.

Both Medium and Advanced Levels might require handling various challenges such as reading cue sheets, using a Garmin or navigation app, night riding, out of town travel, or any other odd cycling situations.

++++++++++++++++++++ The Fine Print: ++++++++++++++++++++ An RSVP of 'YES' is your digital signature and means you have read and understood MEETUP.com's:

• "Terms of Service: Section 6. Release " found at https://www.meetup.com/terms/ • NOVA-CBG's "Assumption of Risk Agreement" found @ https://www.meetup.com/novacbg/pages/1942951/NOVA-CBG_Waiver/

Helmets are required to participate in all NOVA-CBG rides. NO exceptions. All riders ride at their own risk and with the understanding that cycling is an inherently dangerous activity. When coming to the meetup you do so voluntarily and are ready and able to participate in the ride as described under the conditions of the day. Be on time for the "pre-ride" preparation. If you do not attend the pre-ride preparation you will not be allowed to participate on the ride. Again, no exceptions.
