CFC Ride Policies:
General
Please arrive 15 minutes before roll out to sign in.
All riders must sign the waiver form. Riders under 18 must have parent or guardian co-sign waiver and riders under 14 must be accompanied on ride by parent or guardian.
All riders must ensure that their bike is in good mechanical condition. Riders should carry water, tube, and tools to repair a flat.
Helmets are required on all rides!
Weather
Weather varies with the season, dress in layers or apply sunscreen accordingly, and wear a helmet.
Weather in NC can be very warm. Bring plenty of beverages and snacks as rides in rural areas may not have many refueling options.
Rides often continue through light rains; however, bad weather is always a factor in ride safety.
Cancellations may occur with uncertain forecasts and should be expected with heavy rains and/or lightning.

How To Load Routes On Garmin
Option 1: Use the Garmin Connect website. Use the link in "Garmin" column to get to the map. If you are logged in, you should be able to save the route to your account and "send to device".
Option 2: Save the TCX file to your computer where you can find it. Using a cable, connect your Garmin to the computer and open the folders using the "File Explorer" or "My Computer" feature on your computer. Find where you saved the file, right click on it and "copy". Now open the drive/folder for your Garmin (which should show up in your "My Computer" just like a flash drive would) and paste the file in the "New Files" folder. Turn the Garmin on, and your Garmin will process the route into your course list.
