How to host a club ride
Our clubs main activities are known as “Hosted Rides”. This includes a ride route and a ride leader. Typically, on hosted rides, one may start the ride near a brewery or restaurant, where we can gather after for more “Social time”. The more rides people host - the more fun it is to be a member of the club as the more chance we get to interact through riding and social time. Once we have determined a date and a route, we will publicize the ride for you in the club newsletter, Colorado Tandem Club Calendar on our website, and Facebook event page.
​
Here is a quick list of how to host a ride:
-
Select a date.
-
Select your route. Here are some tips:
-
Use the RidewithGPS app; you can search for existing rides, or you can record the ride you want to share. This is the tool of choice when sharing the route with others.
-
We can pair you with a mentor to help you fine-tune any ride.
-
-
Contact the CTC Club President to ensure no date conflicts: coloradotandemclub@gmail.com
-
Download the sign-up sheet and make sure everyone signs it that rides. This is the one critical item as it is required by our insurance carrier.
-
On the day of the ride:
-
​Allow each team to briefly introduce themselves (i.e. name, city, how long a member)
-
Tell everyone about the ride; the overview of the route, anything to watch out for, places you will stop to re-group.
-
Anything else relevant to your ride or the social part after!
-
Most of all, have fun, stay safe and be social!
