A group of cyclists gathered in the Fryeburg Visitor Center’s parking lot, ready to ride. Tooling Tuesday’s ride leader Denise Jaronski called them together to explain the route and options along the way. She reassured riders that the group would wait for them if they fell behind. At turns and junctions, riders would signal and say the way to go. Nobody would get “dropped.”

For riders new to the area or to group riding, the “no drop” designation is important to know. No one wants to be out in unfamiliar territory and get left behind. Even worse, have a mechanical breakdown or crash, and be left on your own to cope. Know what the group’s policy is before you go.
