We will eat some of our meals in restaurants and others at the camp site.

If you are driving please tell me how many people and bikes you can take INCLUDING you and your bike?

Also if you have not ridden with me before, you MUST answer in the affirmative the following questions (for your own ease simply copy and paste the questions into the Notes section and type in your answers when you sign up):
1. Do you agree to wear a bicycle helmet?
2. Are you experienced, comfortable, and safe riding in traffic i.e. with automobiles?
