    Picnic and Ride Start at Forest Park, 701 Cicero Rd, Noblesville, IN 46060

    The Picnic Ride features a staggered start so riders are back at Forest Park for lunch at noon. 

    Please RSVP your intent for the picnic by Thursday, July 14, 2016 to Denise Mattox, 317-345-8074, ottrottrider@indy.rr.com.

    Lunch will start at noon. CIBA provides meat, bread, drinks, plates and utensils. Members should bring a side-dish to share. Indicate in your RSVP if you wish to have a vegetarian entree.

    Ride routes will go to the east of Noblesville with the long route approaching the western edge of Anderson. Riders for the 42-mile route should be ready to depart at 8 a.m. Later departures are scheduled for the 33-mile route (9 a.m.) and the 21-mile route (10 a.m.) to time arrivals for all in nearly the same time frame. The SAG at the Lapel Schools will be about 10 miles from the rides’ end.

    For the long-distance riders: Want to ride more? Ride the 42-mile route followed by the 21-mile route. Or, combine the 33 and 21-mile routes. Ride before and after lunch (no SAG after lunch; convenience stores open in Lapel along the routes)

    There’ll be a roving SAG as well that may provide water and other help.

    Thought a special partnership between CIBA and B&O Trail, CIBA members get free registration to the ride.  This is one of the most valuable benefits CIBA members benefit from.

    Please note that Merchandise and BBQ Lunch is extra and can be purchased at the event.  We will not be collecting any funds, just counts of those interested in using this benefit.

    If you would like to purchase merchandise ahead of time to support the B&O trail please contact Diana Virgil dmvirgil@earthlink.net 

    Merchandise will also be available the day of the event.

    CIBA members will need to log in to verify membership.

    CIBA is pleased to announce a wonderful members’ benefit with the establishment of a RideWithGPS.com club account. This club account will be particularly great for our ride leaders as RideWithGPS.com provides a host of tools to create route maps and cue sheets with great ease, accuracy and clarity.

    CIBA club members will be able to view routes and print their own copies of the map and cue sheets prior to the ride events. It’s a pretty slick product that I believe many ride leaders and CIBA riders will like and be pleased to use.

    For further information, CIBA members may login to this site, then click the Menu (Hamburger) icon at the right of the blue bar above. Scroll down to Members, then to RideWithGPS. 

    Read the narrative. Then click on the invitation link found on the page, http://www.cibaride.org/RideWithGPS.
