C20 Tour de Folsom with EDH / Moderate Pace

Tahoe Joe's (map)

Selected By: A former member

Distance: ~20 miles
Pace: Moderate / 14 mph on flats, slower on hills
Elevation Gained: 1500 ft
Skill Level: Advanced Beginner
Route: Urban roads
Sweep: No.

Let's do a quick ride around Folsom and El Dorado Hills. Quick enough to be done in less than 2 hours (hopefully).

This route is thankfully short but it does have some pretty steep hills - 8 - 13% in the middle. The ride is intended for those who like to ride at a moderate pace. It will not be a hammerfest.

We will meet at parking lot across Starbucks at the corner of Blue Ravine Rd and Folsom Blvd by Tahoe Joes at 9:15 am and roll promptly at 9:30

You need to have some decent climbing experience to be able to do this ride.

We will take a quick break at halfway point. Please note that there are no facilities where we will be taking a break.

We are on a limited time frame so we will not be sweeping. Please make sure you have a copy of the route sheet if you're faster or slower than us.

Here's our route - Route

    Nice Sunday morning ride, never done this route before. Props to Maria for climbing those hills with old-school race gearing and a pair of borrowed shoes! :) And Julie, I hope your knee feels better.
