We'll do a 40-mile ride this week for those also riding Sunday in the FVBSC Swedish Days ride. Plan on a rest stop at Johnson's Mound Forest Preserve, water & restrooms only - so bring a snack with you! Route: KHMS-NLoop-040mi-A This Intermediate ride features an average pace of 14-16 MPH on mostly country roads that may include some elevation and basic pace lines from time to time, at the discretion of the ride leader. Cyclists must be comfortable with a faster pace and some possible climbing. For those new to basic pace lines, the ride leader will guide you through the process.
This is a No Drop ride, but you should be able to maintain an overall ride average speed of at least 14 MPH.
