Rain will not cancel this ride. If it rains, we will laugh at it. Shortly after the ride starts we will be in the dark so lights are needed.

The distance is approx 20 miles and the pace is in the 15-17 mph range. The ride never leaves the bike trail and is a simple out and back route. Meaning you can turn around at anytime without fear of getting lost. This is a recreational ride and will be an easy spin as there are no hills. The ride is not intended to be a hammerfest.

We will meet at the drinking fountain/restroom near the bike trail at William Pond Park at 5:30 pm and be ready to go by 5:45pm... a quick break at Nimbus Fish Hatchery then head on back to William Pond Park. We should be back at Willy Pond by 7:15 or so.

As always your helmet is required and do not forget your light. It may be raining, so dress accordingly.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask. [masked]

Please note that Willy Pond park will be closed by the time we return, so do not leave your vehicle inside the park. There's plenty of street parking outside (on Arden).

I plan on some post ride caffeine and carbs at Bella Bru (Fair Oaks and Arden). So some hot coffee will be in order post ride. They also serve soups, salads, sandwiches, etc.

As a side note: I will be riding in along the UEDA trail starting near Elkhorn to the ARBT then up to William Pond; if anyone wants to hook up and ride a few miles more anywhere along the way. Just let me know and will be on the look out for you.
