How Do I Know When a Ride is Canceled?


We've certainly had some interesting weather extremes in the last couple of weeks from heat too hailstones and torrential rain. So it seems like a good time for a reminder about ride cancellations.

What cancels a ride:

  • Tornado warning

  • Thunderstorm/lightning

  • Snow/freezing rain

  • Wet roads with temperature at or below 32 F

  • Steady wind of 20 mph and/or winds gusting over 25 mph

  • Torrential rain that impacts visibility

  • Air Quality Index (AQI) over 150

When a ride is canceled, we let you know by:

  • The RWGPS Event name will be changed with a prefix **CANCELED. If you 'Joined' the event, you'll also get a RWGPS notification
  • A red banner on the web page that says **CANCELED** and the ride name
  • A Discord post on the BBC/General channel
  • A red banner on the BBC Facebook Page, that says **CANCELED and the ride name
