Now that the group is larger we need to follow some basic rules
*I've replaced references to anyone in particular with generic icons as not to offend
any personal sensitivities.
- And the 5:30 leaves at? You guessed it, 5:30.
 Know the route...get a map of the route (Don't follow you know who!!)
- If you can't hang with the "Big Dogs" know where the rest of us
are going
- Bring a Blinker
- Everyone must wear a helmet
 Stop at road intersections ( Don't follow you know who through red
lights)
- Hand holding is not available you must be able to keep up with a moderate
pace (14-18 ave mph)
- While riding in a pace line ride smooth and steady (Not like you know
who)
 Use caution at Town line Sprints. Avoid the Glasgow two step!!
- Be prepared to Fix your own flat
 You are riding at your own risk and road riding can be dangerous.
Be Street Smart!!
- Ride single file in busy areas (keep the rednecks happy)
- Road bikes are a must
- Name, Rank and serial number is all the information you are required to
give out to you know who.
- Dinner speeches are strictly Verboten !!!

Grouping up into a Peloton and forming a Pace-Line is not only fun it's more
efficient.
From SheldonBrown.com:
A group of cyclists riding close behind one another in a line, so that each
cyclist can draft
the cyclist in front, except, of course for the leader, who is taking a turn
to pull the rest
of the group. The riders take turns pulling and drafting. A group of
cyclists in a pace line can maintain a substantially higher speed than even
the fastest of the group could do alone.
