Description: This is the annual opportunity to meet, ride and socialize with the RABA Board of Directors and its Committee Chairs. The pace leaders comprise of members from the board and committees – while elected to serve, they are all volunteers who do all the organizing and coordinating of
events, fundraisers, ride calendars and advocacy work for and on behalf of club
members. Past iterations of this ride were held at Urban Farmhouse at Rocketts Landing and attracted lots of riders. Unfortunately, Urban Farmhouse at Rocketts Landing closed earlier this year, forcing a change in venue. Please bring plenty of fluids to keep hydrated in this heat and some food in case stores are not open on the routes.
After the ride, everyone is invited to enjoy the food and drinks at Portabella Ristorante or at Ronnie’s BBQ, at 2097 New Market Rd, Richmond, VA 23231, which is less than 2 miles east of Portabella. Both eateries open their doors at 11 AM. Note: if there is strong chance of rain or it is raining on that morning, a ride cancellation notice will be sent via the RABA Message Board. There will be no make-up or rescheduling of this ride.
Start/finish: Portabella Ristorante, 2627 New Market Rd, Richmond,
VA 23231. There is parking lot behind the restaurant. Once the lot behind the café fills, please park in the front lot, in spaces farthest away from the Food Lion grocery store – this will allow customers to park closer as we should not impede normal business. All rides will begin from the rear parking lot.
