Thursday Night Ride Starts This Week

The Thursday Night Group Road Bike Ride starts this Thursday April 16. Ride leaves 6pm from the Cahill Building off Mackey Place. Riders of all abilities are welcome with the ride usually splitting into groups of different speeds and abilities.

This weekly ride is presented by Team Instrumar and you need a BNL Membership to participate. Note that it is early in the season so motorists are not use to seeing cyclists on the road. And roads aren't in the best shape either so be cautious of potholes and cracks. As always you are responsible for your own safety.

  1. How long is the ride going to be (distance)? Or does it vary depending on the group you're with?

  2. Hello cyclists,

    Winter is over (we hope but you never know around here) and It is that time
    of the year again where we can back on the bikes and start riding outside.
    The BNL spin classes have been a huge success and riders should be eager to
    start putting their hard winter training to good use! The snow is gone,
    road shoulders are clear, and temperatures are bearable so Team Instrumar
    would like to announce that the weekly group rides will start on Thursday
    April 16th. The rides leave from the Cahill building parking lot at 6:00
    pm and riders of all abilities are welcome. The rides will be kept short
    initially to avoid getting caught riding in the dark. The ride usually
    splits up into groups of different speeds and abilities but regardless of
    your speed there is usually someone else to ride with so come on out!
    Please note, motorists aren't use to seeing cyclists on the road yet so be
    safe and aware of any hazards. Some roads aren't in the best shape either
    so be cautious of potholes and cracks. As always, this ride is at your own
    discretion, if the weather conditions are horrible or unsafe the decision
    to ride rests with you.

    Team Instrumar also has some exciting events planned for this season, this
    will be communicated in a future email within the next few days.

    Looking forward to an exciting and long cycling season and to meeting lots
    of new people. If anyone has questions or needs directions to the start
    please do not hesitate to contact me at jasoncpretty@gmail.com

    Thanks!!
