Meeting Places

If the directions below are not clear ask the ride leader for more information when you confirm your participation. 

M and D Bird Farm is about 5.5 miles west of Rt. 1 on Rt 9. 

St. Ann's Church is on route 26 just west of route 1 near Bethany Beach.

(WM) Wal Mart   All Walmart rides meet in the small parking lot across from the parking lot entrance to Beebe Eye Institute. Turn off Rt. 24 as if you were going to the old Walmart start area.  Call the ride leader for more details if needed.

Peddlers Village (PV) is a small strip mall about 4 miles west of the junction of Rt. 1 and Rt. 24 on Rt. 24.

Delaware Eye Clinics is on Rt. 9 about 5.5 miles west of the intersection of Rt. 1 and Rt. 9 (at Lowes). It is on the left just past the railroad tracks when heading west.

NOTE: Phoning ahead will allow the ride leader to know if anyone is riding. The the leader will not show if no one calls to indicate they are riding. It will also allow the leader to plan the ride knowing more about the capabilities and desires of the riders. This will be necessary until we have a large enough number of riders showing up for every ride.

Helmets are required on all rides...there are no exceptions.

 

Important!

Each Rider should carry ID, medical information (insurance cards, etc.) and a document listing someone to contact in case of emergency or alternatively have a phone number on your cell phone under ICE (in case of emergency)for a contact - you never know when it might be needed! RoadID sells a variety of ways to carry this information. Go to RoadID for more information.
