Hello Cyclist.
The next All Women’s Ride is Friday. Please note new starting location.
The annual Ride of Silence will be held Wednesday, 21 May at 7:00 PM. This is a silent procession to honor cyclists who have been killed or injured while cycling on public roadways and to raise awareness that cyclists have a legal right to share the road with motorists. Click the link below for more information. Volunteers are also needed. Click here to register to volunteer.
On 26 May, we are invited to join the first annual combined group ride from the Buffalo Lodge with SoCo Velo, the Buffalo Tribe and COS Racing. There will be three distances/levels for all experience levels. This is a social ride, no drop with a sweep. Please wear your CSCC team jersey to this event.
And lastly, we are doing a Wednesday Evening Ride! To give those of you a chance to ride who otherwise work during the day, we will be doing a group ride every Wednesday starting from the Legacy Loop Plaza parking lot. Once a month we will start from South Park Brewing so once the ride is done, stay for some socializing.

And now for some tidbits:
Join our private Strava club https://www.strava.com/clubs/colorado-springs-cycling-club It’s a great way to see and encourage your fellow club mates.
We need ride leaders. Email Sara Hill at sleonahill@yahoo.com if you would like more information.
As a reminder, if you are going to attend one of our club rides or events, please sign up on Meet Up. This lets the ride leader or event creator know of your intent to participate and if you are running late, the ride leader may, at their discretion, wait for you and or try to contact you before the ride starts. Also, if the ride is canceled due to unforeseen circumstances at the last minute, the ride leader can reach out to the individual participants to let them know. Finally, if no one has registered for a ride by 8 PM the night before, the ride may likely become a “show and go.”
With the uncertain weather pattern of the season, a ride may become a "show and go” or canceled. The ride leader will update the Meetup event. The group that shows then agrees where to go together. Be prepared with a sign-in sheet. Instructions for where to send the sign-in sheet after the ride are at the bottom of the sign-in sheet.
Thanks for reading.
