G's
A great weekend with sunny skies and great riding weather!!! The temps look
to be in the mid 40s at 8:00am and it should start to warm up fairly
quickly, so let’s plan on a 8:00am start time. I have been talking with
Smith & Claude during the week to get their ideas on a LSD ride route and
the attached cue sheet is what we have come up with. Again this is a Long
Steady Distance (LSD) ride to help build up our endurance for the coming
months of even longer rides.
I have also attached a copy of the Gyros Waiver & Liability Form. If you
have not signed one and plan on joining us this weekend, please print it out
sign it and bring it with you to the start of the ride on Saturday morning.
We will be meeting at PUE.
Here are the specs:

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.
