Hump~Day~Hustle / 22 mi @ 10-12 mph / Riordan, Starosta & Jarrett

This is an highly social, evening ride that has been a Spring, Summer and Fall tradition since August, 2015, ...always rolling at the speed-of-fun. We ride as a team and enthusiastically encourage communication, conversation and laughter, as long as riders prescribe to safe practices such as: communicating about obstacles; maintaining gaps that are appropriate for the speed, terrain and weather conditions, etc.<br />You must have a bike that is trail-ready and has headlights and tail lights. Avoid using retina-burning tail lights, and we try to douse headlights when passing pedestrians and other riders as we ride into growing darkness. We suggest a mountain or fat-tire bike, or at least some wide tires. i.e. There may be times on the damp, crushed limestone trails when a slim-tire road bike will be very difficult to ride.<br />No rider will ever be left behind. Having said that, please don&#39;t show up if your bike is not ready or you are not in athletic condition for this distance and pace. Note that 10-12 mph on a trail may take the same effort as 13-16 mph on a road, using a road bike. Riding a heavy, fat bike or mountain bike requires yet additional effort. ***THIS IS NOT A BEGINNER RIDE.*** We start in Villa Park but the route may vary from week-to-week. Please make sure that you follow the guidelines listed on our club website for safe riding if you are new to the EBC or the Hustle. Let&#39;s rock!
