Big Creek 2010-11 Night Ride Season
Night Riders at Big Creek
Welcome Back for Season 5 for RAMBO’s Winter “Night Riding in Roswell” Program
Will you lose your weekday ride when time changes and early darkness descends upon us this season? Have no fear, RAMBO and City Of Roswell Parks & Recreation Dept are have a riding option for you! Standard park policy is that Big Creek Park closes at dark and there is no Night riding, at all….Unless you register for the City’s “Night Riding Program”. The program is run by, and benefits RAMBO. All rides are “RTR” or “ready to ride” at 7pm sharp to accommodate sign-in, registration confirmation, assign ride leaders and sweepers, Bike Patrol, and general support to ensure a safe and enjoyable ride for all. Extra instructors and ride leaders will be provided for 1st time or “newbie” night riders.

Link to City of Roswell registration is:
https://webtrac.ci.roswell.ga.us/
From there you can find the program two ways:
1) Search window, pull down menu, select Big Creek
2) Use program numbers (see below). Not sure why they are separated, but use #13699 and you will see the first 3 individual rides in November. If you search #23699, there are 2 pages of results, and all the rest of the individual nights. At end of the list are the package listings.
Program #23699-20 is for the 4 pack
Program #23699-21 is for the 10 pack
Program #23699-22 is for the entire season
Option #1 ($34/$51): All rides
The “entire season” package, our most popular option; this is for every single ride, for entire winter series, we encourage this option as this is a Fund Raiser for the all volunteer bike club. For rained out rides we will typically reschedule the ride and post on RAMBO website and SORBA forums
Option #2 ($24/$36): 10 rides
This is for “10 pack”, you can attend any 10 rides of all ride dates, do them all in row, all at beginning of winter or maybe just attend rides when temperatures are below freezing!
Option #3 ($12/$18): 4 rides
This is for “4 pack”, you can attend any 4 rides of all ride dates, do 1 ride per month, all in row or maybe just attend some rides when temperatures are above 50 degrees!
Option #4 ($4/$6): 1 ride
This is for a single ride, 1 night only. Not the most cost efficient option but non-the less it was used last winter. The more the merrier so come on out. If you are using this option to just “try out this night riding stuff”, please let the instructors/ride leaders know and we can assist/guide you, especially if your 1st time riding at Night.
PLEASE NOTE: you can NOT arrive at trail and pay for the program, it must be done on-line or in person at City Hall. You CAN register up to within 1 hour of the start of the ride. This will allow city to notify the Ride Instructors of the additional name(s) being registered, in time. If you are not registered, you cannot ride at Night. We highly recommend you bring your on-line confirmation printout to the 1st ride you attend (just makes life easier for us).
REQUIRED EQUIPMENT: (in addition to Helmet) is at least one Light for front direction and one “red blinky” light for your backside. Highly suggested equipment is: Extra battery for your lighting system, extra layers of clothes for real cold nights.

2010 6/12hrs at Jackrabbit - Presented by Chainbuster Productions
Todd/Eric:
I just want to send a quick note of thanks to Shawn and Reality for the support this weekend during the Chain Buster season finale 12hr race. I raced the 12hr solo(sport) for Reality Bikes (Shawn has pics) and finished in 2nd – 12 laps (110mi). The bike worked out great but she was getting a bit cranky towards the end and Shawn kept me running.
Again thanks to everyone at the shop for helping make these rides a success.
Regards,
Scott T.
