Important to remember:

• Nutrition: These rides will not be at race intensity, but you should still be prepared to refuel your body regularly.
• Clothing: Check the weather report! Layers, shoe covers, and a good rain shell are highly recommended during the winter months (for product recommendations that fit any budget, visit #gear on Slack).
• Safety: Winter storms tend to scatter debris across the road, causing hazards to yourself and other riders. Ride carefully, communicate with your group, and ensure that your brakes are in good working order.
• Bike Maintenance: After every ride, take a few minutes to ensure that your bike is clean & dry. Looking for more maintenance tips? Head over to the #bike channel on Slack and ask!
