Looking forward to meeting everyone in the morning! Nice cool start with no rain!!! Remember this is fun ride so we can break into different paced groups if needed. We are all there to support each other and our awesome efforts for this great cause.

Thanks for organizing this, I am planning on bringing my 12 year old boy (it is his birthday!!), he will most likely not be up for the full distance but we will make it as far as he is able.
Chad Velta
Thats great! It goes pretty quick and I’m sure we will split it into a few different paced groups! See you in the morning .
Chad Velta
I also have posted this on some Facebook group ride pages I belong to. It shows quite a few people are interested and will go! I think turnout will surprise us, if the weather is nice🤞
Remember all are welcome, GCC or not!

FYI- I just added another group ride on June 8 at Lake Nokomis, if interested.

I hope to be there, live in Prescott so I may just ride one way but still sounds great!!
Chad Velta
Great! If only riding one way, I hope you can get a ride to the starting point😊 Also, I love that little coffee shop on the corner in Prescott.
