We had a nice turnout for the Wednesday night ride last week, so I’m doing it again tonight.   

 

It starts downtown at the park across from the Holiday Inn on Williams Avenue.   Since daylight can be an issue, we will launch as close to 5:30 PM as possible.

 

We’ll try to keep it rolling so we can keep the total time under two hours.

 

The Sunset Loop is 30 miles and includes a climb over Cecil As(s)hburn (Four Mile Post for us old-timers who have lived here since ‘03.)

 

We had some distress last week when two riders did not realize that Four-Mile Post is Cecil Ashburn.  They required some talking to get them to consent to doing the “unannounced” Climb.  So here it is:  There is a one-mile climb on this ride.  It is steep, but it is only one mile.  On a bad day, my mother can do it in about 12 minutes.

 

Anyway, please come out tonight and enjoy an alternative to the Tuesday/Thursday flatland hammer-fests.  I’d love to get enough folks to have both a fast group and a regular group.

 

See y’all at 5:30.
