This is a "B" ride (generally averaging 15-18 mph) - Route varies weekly, exploring areas west, north, and east of Simsbury. Rides generally alternate between hilly & flat. Regroups always occur at key points, certainly at the tops of climbs. This Ride's is considered "Progressive" where each week the speed and climb increase as riders improve and we chase the sunset for maximum ride time during daylight.

All, I have some unexpected items keep me at work. We may be short on ride leaders tonight as John & Brett are unable to make it. If anyone is willing to lead on short notice please post otherwise we may have to formally cancel the ride

In reply to Kring

I'm out tonight too.

Formally Cancelling, if folks show and want to ride no problem, it's just formally not a club ride. hopefully we can get back into the swing next week.
