Tuesday 7/12 Simsbury B Ride - A little change of pace

We've got people looking to take it easy before Errace. We've got some people who want to have an easier week. And we've got some people whose noses are still bleeding from all the climbing last week. So this week we're going to keep it flatter and keep it rolling. We'll be near the higher end of "B" pace but that's because of the profile (minimal climbing).

Summary: 34.5 miles with 1,400 feet of climbing.

Here's the route: Tonight's Route

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