Cyclists will leave all luggage and extra gear in the luggage trailer. Cyclists can leave any extra belongings including clothing, sunscreen, own snacks, and essential items with the SAG (Support and Gear) vehicle and have access to the vehicle along the route and at lunch.
Bicycle mechanics will be present at both the starting line, to help with any last-minute details, and along the route. They will be equipped to provide help with flats and any small repairs that are needed. If a cyclist has something broken on their bike other than a small repair, we can sometimes find it at a local bike shop on the route.
Please note: Cyclists are responsible for any additional costs to their bikes along the route.
The majority of the traveling will be on the seats of the bicycles. The routes will be well-marked and easy to follow. All cyclists will have access to the route on their phones with the Ride With GPS cycling route app.
