I did not pre-order clothing, but they look nice. How can I order one?
If you’ve already registered you can still order clothing by going to our clothing order page HERE. If it is beyond our order cutoff date, then you will need to purchase the clothing on ride day. We ordered some extras and they will be available at ride-day registration. First come, first served. Cash, Check or Credit card.
What if I am sick or had an accident and cannot ride?
We do not provide refunds. However, the ride normally sells out so there are people who want to purchase a registration if you have one to sell. It is typical that people are getting transfers the morning of the ride and showing us the completed form on their cell phones. See the next question.
What if I want to transfer my registration?
Go to the Transfer tab. Note that a good place to find people looking to buy or sell is Craigslist and our Facebook page.
Are there training rides to get in shape for the Primavera?
To get in shape for the spring centuries or the Cinderella Classic, we offer three training series:
CCRS: The Club Conditioning Ride Series (CCRS) is open to all club members and is designed for T and M pace riders to get in condition to do the a metric century (100K), including the Cinderella Classic and the Primavera Workers’ Ride metric century.
LAS: The Less Aggressive Series (LAS) will have approximately two rides per month with some climbing (though less than the PRS) on some of the most beautiful routes in the area. It is designed for T and M pace riders.
PRS: The Progressive Ride Series (PRS) is designed for M pace riders to get in condition to do the Primavera Workers’ Ride full century (100 miles) by riding some of the most stunning routes in the area.
For further information see our Ride Training webpage. You will be able to find these rides listed on our ride calendar: FFBC Rides
Join FFBC to take advantage of these training series! The series start in mid-January with shorter and flatter rides that gradually build up to a full or metric centuries in April. Check the FFBC Rides site for details and schedules.
