Parents:
We would want as many of you bikers as possible. We'd like to maintain a ratio of at least 1 parent biker to every 4 scouts biker. We will be going out in groups of 4 to 5 to avoid clogging up the trail and we would need 1 parent on bike to monitor the group. This trail has a lot of bikers and joggers and we want our scouts to be safe on the trail and we would need a lot of parents on bikes to ensure safety.
We will go over bike safety rules and do a quick helmet inspection before we start. Siblings on bikes welcome.
Absolutely no racing or horseplay permitted.
