NOT SWEPT - we will regroup up at Hazel Crossing & Beal's Point
I am flexible on the start time (an hour either way is fine so propose something that works better for you).
This is a routine mid-week training I have done for years. Most of it is on the bike path and features some good, short, bursty climbs and a good pace for a good 90-minute workout. I used to ride clockwise around the lake but have changed to stay on the N side of the lake for an out-back due to safety concerns (the S side of the lake is dangerous with packs of 3 or more riders). What better way to break a sweat!
As usual, you must be self-supporting (tubes, food, etc.). The route has plenty of water.
The start is at the corner of Castle Creek Drive & Old Auburn in Roseville. Email me for how to get in the gate if you would like to park or meet at my home which is 200 yards from that corner. The meetup start map shows the meetup point slightly to the East of the actual location.
Bad weather cancels.
