EBCC

Time: 6:30pm

Location: Commuter lot at the intersection of Wilcox Street and Iron Horse Blvd, Simsbury (Behind the Bank of America drive-up ATM).

What is this?: Off-road, night-time mountain bike/cyclocross ride. Mix of rail trail, dirt roads and singletrack trails throughout the Farmington Valley. Keep your road bikes at home.

What should I bring?: Handlebar or helmet light (or both), rear strobe light, bike clothing appropriate for the weather (it can get cold after sunset). Bring a change of clothes for a post-ride beer, as well as extra money to buy a beer for the swell ride leaders.

Route: As you have probably already guessed, it really depends upon the relative lack of skills of those who shows up.

This week's weather: Pretty good for December. Temps around 40F at the start.

"Winter Pace" will be strictly enforced.

Banned on this week's ride:

I'll ride tongiht even if the date is wrong

My cammo snuggie base layer is still at the dry cleaners (upgrading it with a "mod" to add a quick access back flap). It's gonna be chilly, does anyone have a spare I can borrow?
