Rick Schalk leads this fun ride starting at the Gordon River Greenway, winding through the well-lit and wide boardwalk paths to Gulf Shore Blvd and beautiful Naples streets and neighborhoods, on to downtown Naples where we will stop at KALEIDOSCOPE BEER COMPANY for a break. We will head back through the park a slightly different way.
Here are the SWFL Critical Mass ride guidelines:
1. YOU RIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK! Your being careful and responsible is up to you. We announce the ride, ride along, enjoy.
2. Obviously if you have not been feeling well or have been around anyone with COVID, please sit this one out!
3. Be nice! Being nice during one of those rare situation, keeps our positive vibe strong - even if they don't receive your kindness in the moment. If they escalate anger, kindly ride away.
4. Lights are a must on night time group rides. You need to be seen by cars and the riders surrounding you. Put head & tail lights in NON flash mode.
5. Helmets. Protect your brain and your pretty face! There are a lot of us riding, though we are careful, a bike to bike fall can easily cause injury.
6. Ride speed is 8-10 mph. If you're a slow rider, it is easier if you keep toward the front of the group.
7. Do not overtake the front of group ride leader. If you see others in front, it is because they have been instructed to do so.
8. When riding on roadways, keep to the right side of the road & allow space on the left for Corkers to pass. If you are told to move out of the way by a Corker, please do so, we're all in this for enjoyment and NO injuries.
9. Ride with consistency (no weaving) & communicate, if you're passing someone, just an easy, "Passing on your left" is all it takes. Shout out potholes, gator or other needed information to those behind you.
10. Keep the swarm of bikes tight (No more than a 3 bike spread).
11. When you ride with SWFL CM you leave your worries behind. If you want, pick them up after the ride.
