The Lancaster Bicycle Club is a recreational club for cyclists of all levels.
The Club carefully plans rides and related events such as bike-safety courses that result in self-confidence, physical fitness, and improved riding skills for cyclists. The Club also hosts numerous social events and supports bicycle-related initiatives through its grant program. The Club has awarded over $530,000 in grants since 1999.
Whether you are an experienced rider or new to bike riding, you can find a variety of suitable rides here on Lancaster Bicycle Club’s Meetup site. Rides are held year round.
Your Meetup membership does not mean you are a Lancaster Bicycle Club member. To eliminate the need for a paper waiver at the ride start, we require club membership in addition to Meetup. You can join today at [lancasterbikeclub.net. ](https://lancasterbikeclub.net)
For proper verification of membership we do not allow anonymous Meetup IDs. Please sign up with a first and last name in order for your request to join be approved.
Thank You.

Ride leader: Lynn Pfeil
Ride sweep:Anticipated Average Pace: (14-16 mph)
Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/56632435THIS RIDE IS ALSO POSTED ON SUSSEX CYCLISTS. Several others have signed up there.
This is my 7th (almost) annual Century from Cape Henlopen to Assateague (and back). Anticipated pace, with exploring Assateague Island and frequent lights/traffic on the way back is around 15mph. This is a daylong adventure! I vary the route a bit every year.
The route down is inland with a mix of quiet roads and towns. There will be rest stops no more than 20 miles apart (convenience stores) on the way down. There is food/water/rest rooms available on Assateague Island. On the return, after crossing back into Ocean City Maryland there will be nearly constant places to stop, if needed. This ride includes some (unpaved) trail riding that is easily ridden on a road bike. Be prepared for variable weather, wind, and plenty of sun.Parking is free at the Ferry terminal. This is just outside of Cape Henlopen State Park.
This is intended to be a group ride with a no-drop rule as the main goal. The ride leader will do his/her best to keep the group together with occasional regroupings and/or splitting into multiple groups to align to pace capabilities.
Helmets are mandatory. No earbuds. Please bring water and a basic repair kit (spare tube, tire levers, pump/CO2 inflator).

The CoffeeTue rides are social rides, but cyclists are not expected to stay in one group. Cyclists may pedal at their own comfortable paces. A planned stop to regroup is recommended. Please be supportive of the other cyclists to avoid anyone biking alone or being dropped off the back of the last group.
