G-Men & Women,

 

Tony will be coaching soccer this weekend and Bert will be eating donuts and
running (good luck with that) so they have asked me to post a ride and lead.
We are going to do one of Gary's favorites Led Zebulon Metric. Please bring
cue sheets to help navigate.

 

As of now Saturday will be a great day for riding.  Low in the 40 but
getting into the 60's!

THE PLAN:
One or more groups will leave with the intent of riding as a group at a
target pace. We will try to cover the same routes, albeit a shorter distance
for the slower group, so if you're struggling or want to ride at an easier
pace, you can move back to a slower group. If you're already in the slowest
group, the ride leader will check to make sure you can make your way back
alone or with another volunteer. You'll know within the first 7 miles
whether or not you're strong enough to maintain the pace. The general rule
is that you should be able to maintain at least a 19+mph pace for the A
Group, 18mph pace for 40-50 miles with the B+ Group or a 16mph pace for
30-40 miles with the B Group, when considering which group to ride with. If
you can not maintain these paces, then it is suggested that you consider the
C/B- Sunday ride. (Please refer to the link above). 

Each group should make a concerted effort to keep the group together but
there will always be those who want to pick up the pace on the return. It is
more appropriate to do this the last 5-7 miles of a ride. The short hammer
sessions, that are always inevitable during our rides, will not be affected.
