#PrepperParentProTips!
– There is plenty of parking – but arrive early to grab a spot and get your family set up. We roll at 6pm.
– Dress Warmly in Layers. (#Overacheivers can get matching outfits for those holiday photos. haha)
– Put lights on your bicycles; most importantly a headlight and taillight. Especially on your kids.
– Your kid(s) should be wearing a helmet (it’s the law).
– We are riding in the street in a really large, spread out pack. The streets are not closed to car traffic. Keep your kids on your right side between you and the curb/parked cars. Stay on the right side of the road. Please keep track of your own children. This is not a supervised ride. However, SJBP BIRDs (our amazing volunteers) will be on hand to help guide families through the ride.
– Check all your bike stuff ahead of time. Make sure you have air in the tires and your chain works.
– Bring some hot cocoa or cider in a thermos. And a snack.
Trust us. It’s a great way to see the famous holiday lights of Willow Glen.
