We will be celebrating June Bugs with a special birthday ride and party! So, if you were born in June or if you were born on any day of the week that ends in Y we would love your company! We will enjoy a variety of flavorful street Tacos (flour tortillas with your choice of chicken, seafood, or vegetarian), lasagna, and superfood salad by Hope Soch of Breads & Spreads Lex. Additionally, laughter, fun, delicious cake, tasty snacks, cold drinks, and more will be overflowing. We will also have a second June Bug Birthday Ride and Party on Thursday, June 24,2021 to uplift the “June Bugs” and everyone else born in the calendar year. Thus, we hope you can join us in June to make new friends, ride with old friends, explore less traveled roads in southern Jessamine County, and celebrate our many blessings!

RIDERS SHALL NOT COME TO A RIDE IF THEY DO NOT FEEL GOOD, HAVE BEEN RUNNING
A TEMPERATURE, OR HAVE AN ACTIVE CASE OF COVID-19
Riders must maintain current social distancing guidelines - 6 feet apart - before, during and after the rides. Groups are limited to no more than 8-10 individuals. If there are more than 8-10 in a pace group, the group must split, with start times staggered by 5 minutes. Masks are required before and after the ride where social distancing is difficult to maintain, per state guidelines. Masks will not be required during the ride since wearing a mask adds stress to the respiratory system. Howeer, the choice is up to the individual rider on whether to wear a maskduring the ride.
Finally, by riding with this group, riders personally accept all risks associated with Covid-19.
All riders must register for the ride to allow the ride leader to manage physical space limitations, multiple groups, and the number of riders.
