Tuesday 10/4 Simsbury B ride - 5:00 start
We're going to push the daylight a bit and squeeze in the same route as last week. It's a nice quiet loop (low traffic) and will be good for night rides too which means this gives us a chance to learn it well. Please don't forget a headlight and a good taillight!! Any little delay and we're sure to be riding in the dark.
General Ride Information: •Location: Farms Village Plaza: 244 Farms Village Rd, West Simsbury, CT 06092 (Shops Across from Tulmeadow Farms & Post Office) •Parking: In the REAR lot behind the buildings •Start time: 5:00pm sharp •Ride Leaders: Steve Savino and Chris Petron
This is a "B" ride (generally averaging 15-18 mph) - Regroups always occur at key points, certainly at the tops of climbs.
Route: The Loop
Please, have a bright taillight (or two) and headlights if you have them. Take a look at your taillight batteries and change them if needed. I see a lot of dim taillights out there!
Glad you enjoyed it. The route works well for keeping everyone together and if you want to go hard, ride at the front, if you need to temper the pace then sit in. It also helps us work on our riding skills! We'll try one more week and then we'll need lights.
I also had fun both times I made the 5PM start. Good group.
