About this event

Moderately-paced advanced ride.  2.5 - 3.5 hours. 14-16.5 mph average, including hills.  One stop.  Two-up paceline.  Route based on weather conditions.

Option 1. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/45662609 (49 miles, 3 hrs 30 min riding time; stopping at Gurley at mile 23).

Option 2. Add 8.5 miles to the 49 miles of https://ridewithgps.com/routes/45662609 by going over Keel from Gurley to Cherry Tree, then rejoining the route. This adds a 1.6-mile, 8 percent average grade climb and about 1-hr 10 min. We may consider a brief refueling stop at McDonald, 6711 US-431, Owens Cross Roads, AL 35763, mile 41.3. This would add 1.5 miles, raising the total to 59 miles.

If there are takers of Option 1, but no self-sufficient group emerges, then I will lead Option 1. Otherwise, Option 2 for me.


Hammering generally discouraged with some exceptions.

Two groups to accommodate faster riders.

Meet at 8:00 am, Providence Classical School, 605 Clinton Street E. Huntsville AL. 35801
