The Wausau Wheelers board recently voted to reauthorize our weekly group rides with restrictions on Tuesday evenings after a poll of our members showed overwhelming support for our group rides. Our first group ride of the season took place Tuesday, July 7th, and was attended by over 50 members. Riders were asked to maintain social distancing in assigned gathering areas based on their pace groups.

We had 7 different pace groups, and group size was limited to a maximum of 10 riders per group. Pace groups with more than 10 riders were required to split as evenly as possible. We plan to continue our Tuesday evening rides through September! For information on ride groups, go to: http://on.fb.me/wwgroups. Membership also includes a number of special events, our annual newsletter, and a 10% discount on non-sale accessories at local bike shops. Guests can do a free, one-time ride-along, with waivers signed. If you’re not a member, you can visit our website to join. The membership fee is $20 per year for a single and $30 for a family membership. The Wausau Wheelers Bicycle Club, Inc. P.O. Box 1381 Wausau, WI 54402-1381.
