    Sounds like fun! That discount sounds dangerous, though. I'd wind up spending more than I made!

    Congratulation!!

    Do you print out a route sheet for your ride?
    Do you do an impromptu fix-a-flat clinic on the ride when someone gets a flat?
    Or do some simple mechanical fix during the ride? e.g. broken spokes, readjusting brakes to stop rubbing against a rim, temporary fix to a blown out tire.

    If you thought of these things, fantastic!! If not then a suggestion to make it more rider friendly.

    temporary fix to a blown tire. If its small enough, you can stuff a folded up dollar bill over the hole from the inside or better yet, if you have a large patch, usually patch kit will have one that is fairly large, and patch the tire casing from the inside.

    They have not been printing out route sheets - that's kind of been the problem. It hasn't been very well attended or promoted. That's where I come in. I plan on posting the routes on the blog once it's created.
    One of the employee riders is a mechanic, and did do an impromptu fix of a chain that got caught in a gal's rear derailer.
    Thanks, and I welcome any suggestions you all may have!

    Fun, and congrats! Are these rides out of Centennial? I haven't done any group rides yet but thinking about it.

    Kate,
    no, they are out of Littleton - Wads/Bowles area. Would love to have you out on at least one ride. I'm on vacation the next two weekends, so my next Saturday back would be July 10th. I can PM you the info if you're interested
