Details:
Hey, let's explore north of Shelbyville, up to Eminence and back!  Arrive by 8:30 for rolling at 8:40.  The two routes overlap for 30 miles, so the plan is to ride together to the store stop at mile 25.  Then Erik will lead his group back for 38 miles/1929' and Gayle will lead 53miles/2979'.  It is an adventure ride in that we have not driven these roads, rather the route is selected based on Heat Maps and checked for no gravel roads.

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. However, the choice is up to the individual rider on whether to wear a mask
during the ride.
