** The radar is looking clear and the sky in brightening up… the ride is on! **
It’s already August… where does the time fly? Tonight going we’re going to do a loop through Crief and Little Lake, hoping to catch a bit a tailwind home.
Speaking of flying – if you’ve been riding R4 and have been feeling inspired to surge away from the group – check out R3, and meet some new friends (see the post for the Thursday Advanced Ride to sign-up)! At this point in the season, we aim to keep paces towards the middle of the the posted ride speed to allow all riders to have the opportunity to progress more smoothly into faster rides. Interested in trying a faster group but not sure if you’re ready? Feel free to talk with a Ride Leader to learn more about the different ride groups offered!
Bringing lights is always a good idea; sunset is now 8:40pm
