DESCRIPTION:Welcome to Mellow Mondays 2026.\n\nAre you interested in 
 leading a ride? This is a supportive and organized way to lead for the 
 first time. \n\nEvery week there’s different themes but there are 
 constants….\nSlow pace\, about 8 mph\,\nDistance varies but approx 10 
 miles\,\nFamily friendly\,\nWe practice consent and non-violence on all 
 our rides\, \nStore stop for safe clean bathroom access but generally we 
 try and make these stops short\, \nSkater friendly (but please check with 
 ride leader about crunchy or potential issues for skates)\,\nALL Wheels 
 friendly (scooter\, skates\, skateboard\, e bikes etc)\, \nRide is always 
 a loop\,\nCorking and traffic intersections are calm.\nBe mindful of 
 smoking around others and do not smoke around children. \n\nFAQ\,\nCan I 
 bring a speaker? Yes but please speak to the ride leader and play the 
 music they’ve carefully selected or what their preference is. \n\nCan I 
 lead a ride? Yes\, please attend a few first and get a feel for how the 
 rides are. \n\nI’ve heard NakedHearts supports other rides? Yes\, we can 
 help with planning\, encouragement\, promotion\, sound support and what 
 not. \n\nWhat do you mean you practice consent? We ask everyone (even 
 friends\, relatives\, husbands and wives with each other) to ask for 
 permission before touching anyone else or their belongings and when asking
  to seek listen and empower ‘No’.\n\nWhat do you mean you practice Non-
 violence? We specifically expect everyone to be calm\, kind and respectful
  with all car interactions. One riders aggression to a car driver can put 
 everyone else at risk. We live in a small city and are bound to encounter 
 the same drivers again. \n\nAre all your rides a protest? Yes\, being 
 together with respect and acceptance and finding comfort and joy around 
 others and strangers is an act of protest against the divisive paradigm we
  are in.\nActually we leave at 7:30 now…it’s too cold to hang 
 around\nhttps://shift2bikes.org/calendar/event-23047
