Description: This is a 100% paved ride.
Note: we'd mentioned that we would offer a mixed-terrain option if the trails were dry enough, and some trails are a bit too soft still to ride, so we aren't taking chances.
It's spring and this is a great opportunity to get back on the road, meet other road riders, and enjoy good time in the saddle!
Route: The route is available to attendees via .tcx and .gpx files the morning of the ride at Ride Headquarters; we'll help load your Garmin. All RSVPers will receive the route via email Friday evening before the ride.
Ride Notes: We have Ride Headquarters Super Domestiques leading the ride and pointing out turns. There will be two speed groups: 15-16mph average and 17-18mph average.
If you and your self-organized team or group would like to roll together, let us know and we'll give you a separate roll-out time.
Estimated time: A little less than 2 hours for the 30-mile ride, 3 hours for the 45-mile ride.
Last Minute Information: Watch Ride Headquarter's Twitter feed for last-minute updates, weather cancellations or other changes. We will also email all who RSVP with last-minute details.
