The GRiT pre-ride leader will lead a group of 20-30 girls through the race course and make frequent stops at features or difficult parts of the course to offer the girls the opportunity to session. During stops, ask the girls if they have any questions about the upcoming race or about how they are feeling about the race course. If you haven't ridden the course yet, it's ok! Blind riding is an important skills for the girls to learn too - think about talking them through the thought process for approaching a new course including getting off the bike to walk sections if needed, planning your race lines, and sessioning areas of the course.

The GRiT Pre-ride Sweep is a female coach who will sweep the group to make sure no one is left behind. The sweep will also engage with the girls to ask fun, welcoming, and supportive questions while riding and when waiting for the riders to regroup. Sweeps will want to radio to the leading coaches to make sure that the group sticks together. If there is a natural spilt in the group you'll want to communicate to the lead coach to split the ride into two groups (if there's enough coaches present).
