Check out this blog post from Grease Rag {Minneapolis} supporter Emily on FTW rides and their meaning.) \n\n\nThis ride will center returning and new riders who hope to gain confidence and knowledge about riding a bike. Rides will be between 6-10 miles. No rider left behind. We will traverse streets and greenways.\n\nRide schedule & details\nMeet in the main parking lot by the clubhouse at the golf course. \n\nWe will have a short (10 minute) maintenance demo at the beginning of the ride covering various topics like tire inflation\, fixing a dropped chain\, lubricating a drivetrain\, and more. (Only one topic covered per ride!)\n\nMeet at location 6:00p to mingle/chat; maintenance demo will happen by 5:40p; we will roll out of the location by 6:30p.\n\nDon’t want to mingle or watch demo? Just come by 6:30p to roll out.\n\nStart locations will be chosen from Ted Rhodes Golf Course (near the Cumberland River Greenway trailhead) in North Nashville and Shelby Park or Bass Park in East Nashville.\n\nIn case of predictable inclement weather\, the ride will be cancelled. We will post updates on our Twitter feed.\nRide requirements & requests\nPlease note: masks are OPTIONAL*. If you feel sick\, stay home! \nWe ride as a group to support new and returning bicycle riders – no rider left behind. If you are a more experienced bike rider\, you are welcome to come and help other FTW riders build their riding confidence and skills!\n\n  \nAdhere to all greenway trail etiquette (ride on right\, signal when passing\, stay under 15MPH\, slow down around walkers). \n\n\n  \nThere is no charge for this ride\, but donations to Bike Fun – a non-profit organization based in Nashville – are welcomed.
