Hi everyone -
We have two new ride leaders scheduled to lead "mentor rides" this week...
The goal is for this to be their last step in becoming regular ride leaders with VBC.
Please come out and join them and their Ride Leader mentor on these great rides... and welcome them into our Ride Leader community. The weather looks great for both:
Wednesday evening, 5:30 pm ride:
Join Advocacy Director Joel Christianson and mentor Ride Leader Chris Brown on:
EVENING: Frenchman's Bar via Lincoln / 13-15 Pace / 500' / 21 mi / RL Joel Christiansen / 5:30 PM - 5/6/2026
Meet at the back parking lot of Clark Public Utilities "ready to ride" by 5:20 pm!|
If all goes well, Joel will add "Ride Leader" to his "Advocacy" role with the club, likely leading some relaxed to moderate paced evening rides (and maybe some weekend rides?).
Saturday morning 9 a.m. ride:
Join newer member (but experienced rider) Patrick Bolan and mentor Ride Leader Jane Cote on:
Fisher's Landing, Officer's Row, West Camas / 14 Pace / 812' / 26.7 mi / RL Patrick Bolan / 9 AM - 5/9/2026
Meet in the Fisher's Landing Transit Center parking lot "ready to ride" by 8:50 am!
If all goes well, Patrick looks forward to adding brisk-paced East Vancouver weekend rides onto the VBC calendar... on both road and gravel! (and maybe some evening rides?).
