What is a No Drop Rider?
- No-Drop Riders must be willing to make every effort to depart, ride, and return together as a group (no riding far ahead beyond 0.4km). Strong riders must reduce their pace to accommodate slower riders within reason.
- You have to be a team player to make our No Drop ride a success.
If you are uncertain whether this level is appropriate to your riding level, click here.
* Helmets are mandatory, bring spare inner tube for YOUR bike, check your bike in advance to ensure no mechanical issues, bring enough water to prepare for a slow long ride under the sun.
