Please watch for weather updates. This is important -- IF we get to roll -- choose your group carefully, because if it rains all groups will do their best to get back to the parking lot safely. That means the groups will go off course to get back to the start and if you drop back, there will not be anyone to pick you up.
9AM roll time -- please arrive 15 minutes before the ride to break into groups and for check-in.
A note about the Adventure Ride. It is a social ride. It is not; however, a ride for brand new group riders. If you are successful on the PBA Step-Up Ride, you will be able to ride the Adventure. If you struggle on PBA Step-Up, you are not ready to take on the Adventure Ride YET.
The Adventure Ride is a SOCIAL ride. We will break into as many groups as we need to, to accommodate the folks that would like a nice Sunday morning social ride.
This ride is NOT designed to be taxing on your system and abilities, it is designed to be a comfortable safe recovery ride. More seasoned riders, can easily recover at a faster pace -- while the rest of us need a slower pace to recover. This should be a nice steady Zone 2 ride.
If the ride is full -- there is not a waitlist. Do not look for a waitlist -- it will not be there. If you want to ride, and are a ride leader, let me know and if you will volunteer to help -- I will guarantee you a spot. Which means that I will be able to allow more folks to join the ride.
This is a group ride. Whichever group you roll with, you will be expected to be part of the group.
Group 1 ~ Spicy Recovery Pace
Group 2 ~17ish average recovery pace
Group 3 ~16ish average recovery pace
Group 4 (14-16 -- we ride to the slowest rider -- but the expectation is that a rider is able to ride and maintain a 14 average.)
