Saturday, September, 16, 2021 Group Rides from Cycles de ORO at 8:00 AM

[michael...@gmail.com]

I know a lot of people are getting ready for the Tour to Tanglewood and there have only been a few training rides in the area.  So, if you want to ride about 25 miles or 40 miles on Saturday morning we will be riding form the parking lot behind Cycles de ORO at 8:00 AM.

Dale Brown has agreed to open the shop 15 minutes before we roll if anyone wants to use the restroom or buy anything they may have forgotten that morning.

I will post the routes sometime on Friday.  There will be one store stop on each route, and the routes will follow of the same roads.  I will lead a group on the 40 mile route at between 15 and 17 mph depending on which riders show up.  

If you ride a little slower, you are welcome to stay with the group as long as you are comfortable and then break off (bring a friend).  If you want to ride faster than the group, please bring a friend or two for safety reasons.

If you are new to road riding in general, or to riding in groups, please contact me and I can meet you a few minutes before the ride to help you set your expectations for the ride..

The group I lead will ride a double pace line and stay together for the entire ride.  As a group we will do our best to not surge the hills.  Helmets and Blinkies, please.
