June IP Route: http://ridewithgps.com/routes/1257708

B Group Tempo Ride - leaving from Benidorm at 6:05 PM.
Intensity Pace Rides (IP) - Definitely a step up in competitiveness from the Club Pace Rides. These rides are faster, with training and conditioning
objectives on par with pleasure. Riders in these groups should be fit and experienced, with a high level of bike handling skills, as drafting will be
required to stay with the pace lines that often form. The group will look out for one another and reform at reasonable locations. Riders are expected to be
fully self-sufficient. If this is your first club ride or you’re not familiar with the area, be sure the ride leader is informed. Pace is generally 17-20 mph
with plenty of flat roads and climbing. The length of the ride will average 2 to 3 hours depending on the time of year.
