What Should I Bring To A Ride?

What Should I Bring To A Ride?

  • Yourself, 20 minutes prior to the scheduled start time. MAFW rides generally leave at or very close to the time for which they are scheduled.
  • The understanding that the primary objective of the ride is safety and your full attention to the safety aspects of the ride is required.
    • If you are having medical problems that could present a safety hazard to you or other club members, it is your responsibility to use good judgment about your fitness for the ride. If you are unsure, seek the advice of a medical professional.
    • If you had a bad day and need to blow off steam, go for a walk instead.
  • A bike in good working order that you know how to ride safely
  • A welcoming attitude for new members.  Introduce yourself.
  • A properly fitting helmet meeting CPSC standards
  • Clothes to match the weather – you’ll get lots of advice if you ask
  • A full water bottle
  • A spare tube and patch kit
  • Tire levers
  • A portable air pump
Some experience in changing tires is helpful, see L.L. Bean's Fixing a Flat Tire for more information. You usually will get help from other riders if you need it, but, except on rides rated as Casual, you should be able to change your own flat tire.
