The Atlanta Marathon and Half Marathon are run on Thanksgiving Day.  The Marathon goes from Turner Field to Chamblee and back, starting at 7:30am.  The route is up Piedmont, north on Peachtree to the turn around, then back down Peachtree all the way.  The Half Marathon (much larger crowd) goes from Chamblee to Turner Field, starting at 7:00am.  The route is all the way down Peachtree.  The courses will not be closed to traffic, but there will be cones designating the right lane for runners, and there will be cops and volunteers at intersections.  Also, being Thanksgiving Day, there will be very little traffic anyway. 
 
It's 18 miles, down Chamblee Dunwoody to Peachtree Ind Blvd, to Peachtree, to Turner Field.  On previous rides we've veared over by Emory (down Clairmont) on the way in and come back on Peachtree.  Either way, about 35 miles round trip.  This may be a good option to give the Half Marathon runners (walkers) time to spread out before we get on their course.
 
I recommend we leave from DHS at 7:30am on Thursday, or 7:30ish, as soon as Martin is ready.  We should be back at DHS by 9:45ish.

Dear Dunwoody Cyclists,

Tour Louie scheduled to ride tomorrow has been canceled, and will be
rescheduled.  This is due to a forecast of 100% of rain.

If you know of any riders, please let them know!

Road Bike for sale - really it's a complete package especially for someone
getting into the sport- It isn't designated women's specific but I am female and
can tell you it would probably be great for someone 5'4-5'7 or so- it was set up
for commuting - touring (drivetrain) last year

Here's the breakdown-

Specialized Allez (originally a 2002 or 2003) double butted Alum Frame -
measures 49/50 (I'm 5'6" and it fits me well)
New Carbon Fork, New cassette (12/27) new chain, new touring crank
Was upgraded in 2005 to new black 105 shifters and brakes (9 speed)
Basic Wheels but they are true
Stainless bottle cages come with
Shimano Flight Deck computer comes with - I love this computer
Matching red under-the-saddle bag comes with
bright rear flasher on bag comes with
Road Bar-end flashers come with
entry level rechargeable niterider headlight comes with
Choice of Used Ritchey V4 Comp SPD-compatible pedals, or Look-compatible road
pedals with ti spindles come with
Bike was set up for commuting last year so I put an 18 deg stem on it - I have
other stems if buyer would prefer something different
just took pics last night - email me if you would like them

It's a complete bike and set up so it's $400 - that is non negotiable because
I'd rather keep it and trying to negotiate would be all the incentive I needed
to know I should keep it. It was my first road bike and I've always loved it,
but my evil HOA is making me keep all my bike stuff inside, off my covererd
deck, and something has to go. This bike has been ridden and enjoyed - about
5,000 miles before swapping shifters and brakes, then about 2,500 before
changing the crank, chain, cassette and fork last year. It has some scratches,
no dents, and bar phat gel under the bar tape. It's getting freshly tuned today
and as I said, the wheels are true and all is in good working order

I’ll second Bret’s comments re Mountain Park.  I did interval training in Mountain Park to prep for 6 Gap.  Go up West Lake, down Mountain Park & across Lakeside to return to West Lake.

If you are going east on Spalding from the fire station towards Ball Mill, when you get to the bottom of the hill past that big field on the right (where there are (or were) some soccer goals) there is a street with a sign that says "private road".  Go up that hill!  It is about 1 mile long with the last quarter being quite tough.  It dead ends into a cul-de-sac so you just coast it out.

 

The other "fun" hill is Cochise (sp?).  It is over in Vinings and is pretty damn tough.  You can do repeats there by starting at the bottom (intersection of Cochise and East Paces) near Canoe restaurant (near where Paces Ferry crosses the river), ride Cochise all the way until it intersects AGAIN with Paces Ferry.  Turn left and ride down the hill to Cochise again.  Rinse.  Repeat.

There is a climb that I hit on my way to work everyday.  Not sure how it compares against the others here.

Coming out of Cochran Shoals near 285, turn left, cross the bridge, pass the other park parking then the next left (on the right is 285) is the entrance into RiverEdge Parkway NW.  Very nice climb there.  Go all the way to the end, turn right, then right again and then back down to the entrance again and then do it all over.

If you want to find it on google maps or yahoo, look for
2100 RiverEdge Pkwy, 30328.

Happy climbing

One pretty close to Dunwoody is the hill from the bottom of the Huntcliff Swimming pool and Equestrian center.  I think it is about a mile.  The first part is the steepest grade I have seen in North Atlanta.  Huntcliff also has some decent hills and rollers if you want do some laps.  Huntcliff is about a mile north of the Northridge exit on 400 on Roswell road on the left.

Wallace,

Can you post this to the Dunwoody group?  I've tried to enter it as a ride on the SBL site but it apparently needs to be reviewed/approved by someone before it shows up.

Jack Hondred put together a great route last year that we will follow again this year.  The ride is on Thanksgiving morning starting at 9:00AM. The start location is behind the Brookhaven Marta station at the intersection of Apple Valley Road and Fernwood Circle NE. 

This is a nice 22 mile route with a few climbs.  Plenty of time to do the ride and get back home for lunch. 

Here is a map of the route: 


Regards,
Dennis McClintock

My favorite that is fairly close by (Johns Creek) is what my group refers to as Aberdeen.  It is Laurel Springs Parkway eastbound between Peachtree Parkway and Old Atlanta Rd.  The climb is about 1/2 at between 13 and 17%.  It's great for hill repeats.

I for one have never done a ride in the dark, if I decide to try it there is no better way than to start with coach Robert.

Wouldn't exactly call that a "night" ride. Would love it if it started around 8pm or so. Speaking of...Mike Smith and I have done a few genuine night rides in Dunwoody recently, so there are still some of us interested in doing that. So by all means, speak up if there are others.

Starting Dec 3rd @ 6:30, a new weekly night group ride starts at St. Mtn Park.  Distance approximately 25 miles and is a no-drop ride.  Helmets, headlights and taillights are required.  If you ever thought about riding in the dark, this is the place and time to start.  This weekly ride will be led byMyCycleCoach.com's Robert Wilhite so you can expect a very organized ride.
All details in my Blog on my website (click here) for specific meeting points.  Hope to see lots of DC riders.

See ya on the road...(in the dark)

Tomorrow night, Monday 11/15 at 7 pm at City Hall the Dunwoody City Council will receive the first reading of a proposed Resolution /Action Plan to become a bike-friendly community. This was submitted by the Bike Taskforce about a month ago.

 

http://jkheneghan.com/city/meetings/2009/Nov/11162009_Action%20Plan%20for%20Bicycle%20Friendly%20Community.pdf

 

Can you please attend the meeting to voice your support? You could also introduce yourself to the new Director of Public Works, Michael Smith (don’t yet know the history of Richard Meehan’s departure).

 

Unfortunately, I will be travelling out of town and will be unable to make the council meeting tomorrow. Please help our group efforts and carry the torch!!

 

Thanks and have a great upcoming week!!

 

Joe Seconder
