Beginner Ride - Saturday May 25

Post by Rhino » Tue Apr 16, 2013 11:52 am

Beginner rides are for new riders, riders who haven't done group riding before, or riders who want to ride with FWMR at a nice easy pace. If you feel like a Moderate ride might be too fast for your comfort level, this is the ride you want to attend. Speeds stay at legal limits, no corners are taken too fast, and we ride at the pace of the slowest person. Nobody gets left behind, and nobody gets pushed to their limits.

This ride will leave from the Sonic on Clifford Street in White Settlement. Pre-ride brief is at 9am, with the ride to depart immediately after.

Please show up in full gear (jacket, long pants, boots, gloves, and helmet) with a full gas tank ready to ride. We'll have lunch on the ride between 11am and 12pm and be back in Ft. Worth in the early afternoon, around 2pm.

I guess I'm technically a newbie for this group since aside from a couple years worth of track days, I haven't ridden with anyone here..

I should be able to make this unless family obligations arise
