I wanted to let everyone know we will be hosting our second Addison County Adventure Rides of the summer this Sunday, July 5th. We will be departing from 502 S. Lincoln Road, Lincoln, VT at 9am if anyone is interested.

We will be exploring many of the gravel roads, Class 4, and forest roads in and around Lincoln and Ripton. The routes can get a little rowdy and technically challenging so we recommend the widest tires and largest cassette you have and even sometimes a lightweight hard tail mountain bike is a good option. Route will run around 50 miles and we will offer optional route cut-outs so that everyone finishes at about the same time.

Group size will be set to 25. You need to sign up in advance here: https://forms.gle/JMPh72HKPHZ83hi36

Because of the current COVID-19 guidelines from the Vermont Health Dept. of Heath we will be implementing the following guidelines for group rides:

• No group rides larger than 25 cyclists
• Please, bring a mask for the ride (mask does not have to be worn during the ride but you should have one available in the case that you can not maintain six feet of social distancing).
• You should be fully self-supporting. Make sure you have any tools, tubes, and so on to handle any mechanical issue you may encounter during your ride.
• Remember, if you are from out of state or have been traveling out of state, you will have to quarantine for 14 days or 7 days and then tested for COVID-19 (negative) before participating in any of our group rides. Or be coming from a state and county permitted to travel to VT under no quarantine. To see if your location applies please check here: https://accd.vermont.gov/covid-19/restart/cross-state-travel
• During group rides please maintain 6 feet distancing as best as possible.
• Finally, during group rides please refrain from spitting or blowing your nose in and around other riders.
• EXTRA CREDIT- We encourage you to bring a small bottle of hand sanitizer during group rides.
