May is here!
The Adventure will roll with Silly Socks and some HILLS! You can thank Lori A for both.
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 you leave with a group that is making you work too hard -- pulling over and waiting for the next group will usually work.
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 ~18ish average 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.)
