Ride will start at 6 AM sharp on Saturday, June 5th at Eastern Wayne High School. ( 1135 New Hope Rd, Goldsboro, NC 27534).
Course is designed so that we ride 4 different loops, all starting and ending at Eastern Wayne High School. The first loop is 65 miles, and each subsequent loop gets 10 miles shorter. Plan on riding the entire 200 miles, or join us for one or more of the different routes we'll be riding. Estimated times of departure for each loop are: 65 mile loop, depart 6 AM 55 mile loop, depart 10:20 AM 45 mile loop, depart 2 PM 35 mile loop, depart 5:30 PM Finish at about 8 PM Rules of the ride: 1. We will ride 4 loops of 65, 55, 45 and 35 miles. We'll take a 15-20 minute break between each loop. Showers will be available at the high school if you wish to take advantage. Bring your own food and drinks. 2. 18 mph pace, no faster, no slower. If you aren't able to hold the pace, we'll do everything in our power to help you get back to the school. But we have a limited amount of daylight and won't be able to wait on you. The physical inability or mechanical misfortunes of one rider could jeopardize the chances for everyone else to complete the ride. 3.. Minor mechanical problems, such as flats, we will wait and assist. Major mechanical problems, see # 2 above. 4. Riders who choose to ride faster than 18 mph are welcomed to do so, but we won't go with you, and you won't have a map. 5. The ride is not sagged. Bring your own food and drink. We'll stop halfway through each loop at a store. 6. No pre-registration, no sign-ups. No entry fee. Just come out and ride with us. This is a great ride, and if you've ever wanted to do a double century, we believe we have hit on the secret of the best method to accomplish one. Proper speed, proper breaks, proper nutrition. Lots of fun! I suggest we meet at the McDonald's at Raleigh Rd/Forest Hills and leave there at 5:00 am SHARP. This really is the funnest ride of the year and if you want to try your first century, this is it. The 18 mph pace in a group of about 40 riders makes it very easy. So, please reply if you're in so we can arrange for car pooling, etc. Put how many loops you plan on riding in the reply. Thanks. Nick I'm in for the first loop and maybe the second. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jim Davis Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2010 7:15 AM To: COWS Subject: [COWs] Goldsboro ride Up to 200 miles, double pace line easy pace, good ride for a first century or for some long seat time for the BSG.
