B Riders, 

As Tony stated, neither Diana, nor I will be able to lead the B ride this 
weekend.  You have already proven there is enough interest in this ride to 
still show up and have a great day.  Please be safe and watch out for each 
other!

MEETING PLACE: Ravenstone Plaza
  TIME: Saturday 6/12 at 8:00 am    
  DISTANCE: 44 miles
  ROUTE:  See attached cue sheet 
  PACE: 16-17 - No drop but you MUST be able to maintain the minimum pace. 
 NOTE:  If you have never ridden with us before, this is NOT the weekend to 
show up.  Please come at a time when Diana or I am there.  If you are not 
familiar with riding in pacelines, please take a moment to review this

When you are at the front of the line, please do not stop peddling!  It slows 
the entire group.  The goal is to maintain a consistent pace without surging up 
hills or slowing down.  If you get tired, you have pulled too long and need to 
safely pull off and allow the next rider to take the lead.  If you do not feel 
strong enough to take a pull, when it is your turn at the front, simply signal 
to the next rider that you are pulling off the front and go to the back of the 
line.  Also, I've seen a lot of people in the front turning around to hear or 
see what's going on behind them.  This can also be unsafe.  You may not realize 
it, but your bike swerves and you typically stop peddling.  

Again, please watch out for each other and don't drop anyone!!!  

Thank you!
Leslie
