G-Men & Women,
Weather dosen't look very good for
Saturday. After such beautiful weather all week. Go figure. I wanted
to start increasing the mileage to especially with the Frostbite Tour
coming up in 2 weeks and our mountain ride in 6 weeks.
Well, be sure to check your emails
by 7am on Saturday for a weather update.
I'll post the ride anyway. This
should be an exciting route utilizing a combination of Mt. Tirzah and
Snow Hill with some new roads that we can explore. We will also have
the option of cutting it a bit shorter, from 70 miles to 58
miles, depending on how everyone feels.
CUE SHEET: See
Above
(B GROUP - Maria)
Maria will post her ride.
SUNDAY
RIDE (2/15):
Kim's Recovery Ride leaves from Blue Jay Point @ 9:30am. (38
miles @ 17-18mph pace)
Mike's Gyro Touring Ride. He will post all the info for this ride.
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.
