Eastern Bloc Cycling Club

It's going to be pretty hot, so we'll keep things relatively flat this week. We'll head north and do the loop around Congamond Lakes. The Evil Weather Overlord (aka The Prince of Darkness) is back this week and guarantees there will be no thunderstorms.

This Ride's is considered "Progressive" where each week the speed and climb increase as riders improve and we chase maximum daylight, however; always staying within the advertised club pace and regrouping.
