This is a recreational pace in the 11-16 average mph range, faster than a recreational cruise, but a conversational pace. Be prepared for riding hills, and flats and to spin consistently for 2-3 hours at a time without stopping. Always eat breakfast before the ride to help sustain your energy level.

• Leave at 9 a.m., from River City Bicycles (RCB).
•  Back at RCB usually about 12 p.m., but no promises. This is a no-drop ride. The group stops to fix flats, take bathroom breaks, and re-groups at major turns.
•  In the case of snow, ice or other severe winter conditions, the ride is canceled.
• Yes, we ride in the rain.
