Distance: 40-55 miles
Ride Leader: n/a

Show-and-go social ride with destination and distance
determined at the start of the ride.

Club Pace Rides (CP) - Rides designed for solid,
experienced cyclists interested in getting a good workout
and enjoying themselves. Drafting does occur at times,
and some members of the group are likely to compete for
the top of the hills, and maybe a good sprint finish;
however, the point of the ride is still to enjoy the exercise.
These rides regroup after hills, long sections ridden at
slightly higher speeds, and major intersections. Riders will
need a road bike, tool bag, and appropriate food and
water for this ride. If this is your first club ride or you’re
not familiar with the area, be sure the ride leader is
informed. The pace is generally 15-18 mph with a
mixture of flat roads and climbs. Typically, more climbing
than a Soft Pace Ride. The length of the ride will average 2
to 3 hours depending on the day and time of year.

(Check "Group Rides" forum for updates and weather
cancellations.)

Distance: 18-40 miles (varies by month and amount of daylight)
Ride Leader: Coleman Ross

Club Pace ride (generally averaging 16-17 mph) - route varies weekly, exploring areas west, north, and east of West
Simsbury. Rides generally include a climb or two (due to ride leader's love of the ups :-D), and regroup as necessary,
certainly at the tops of climbs. Dinner afterwards for those interested.

(As always, check "Group Rides" forum for updates and weather cancellations.)
