Payment In Full In Advance Only
This will be a monitored ride. Wrist bands and bibs will be issued and required to be worn during this ride. This will insure that only registered riders partake of pre-ride snacks and avail themselves of rest stops, marked routes, mechanical support, SAGs, motorcycle safety escorts, maps, and a post-ride lunch.

RIDE RULES - WE WANT THIS TO BE A FUN, FAMILY EVENT! HELMETS AND BRAKES ARE REQUIRED
Headphones are prohibited by Florida State Law, per FS 316.304. Each bicycle must be equipped with at least one brake that meets the requirement of FS 316.2065(14). No use of aerobars while riding in a paceline.

To maintain a safe, fun, family oriented ride for everyone, we expect that riders will obey all traffic regulations and police officers. Riders must follow standard, well-accepted safe cycling practices which will be emphasized in the pre-ride safety briefings. Ride marshals will be on the route to monitor compliance and provide assistance pending the arrival of SAGs or emergency personnel, as appropriate.
Cancellation Policy:
No Refunds, No Rain Dates.

Sorry, but there is no rain date and we cannot offer refunds. The event takes place, rain or shine. If for some reason you cannot attend the ride after registering, you can have someone pick up your T-shirt for you at the ride or you can pick it up at the next scheduled NFBC club meeting. Otherwise, it becomes the property of the club.
