About this event

We'll do a not-too-long, not-too-hard ride.  Fairly early start since it might get hot in the afternoon.

NOTES:
 • Start is at Field #2 in Jackson Park, where Glover St meets Jackson Park Rd.  Restrooms available.
 • Level 3 target pace for this much climbing is 15.0–15.8mph average for the whole ride.  If the number of riders warrants, we'll split into groups at the start with faster riders encouraged to go in the front group(s).  Your humble ride leader will ride with the last group and try to hit the target pace.
 • (Brief) rest stop ~mile 18.9 at Griffin's Grocery.  Restroom is usually open.
 • This is a REGROUP ride.  We'll stop and regroup periodically, but won't wait forever for someone way behind.  Ensure you have the route and are fully self-sufficient to complete the ride if you get too far behind. Please call, though, if you get lost or have a problem.

EQUIPMENT: Helmets and water bottles are mandatory. Have the route on your bike computer, phone, or printed cue sheet. Front facing headlights and rear blinking lights are highly recommended for this ride and required on the Blue Ridge Parkway unless appropriate reflectors are attached. Your bike must be equipped with the necessary lights or reflectors in accordance with applicable North Carolina and federal law and statutes governing bicycles. You should be fully self-sufficient for repair of flat tires or small mechanical issues.


NOTE: All rides leave promptly at the time stated. Give yourself enough time (at least fifteen minutes) to get your bike unloaded and all geared up!

WEATHER: Please remember if the weather looks "iffy" or gets bad before the start date and time, then the ride leader(s) may not be there and you will be riding on your own. It's always a good idea to check the calendar entry for updates the morning of the ride. Use your own judgement whether it's suitable to ride.
