Here are the details for Tuesday's Ride
Description: The ride will leave from the area in front of District Brewing at the corner of Main St and Myrtle St in Mount Vernon. We’ll head south out of town on the River Walk and join Dike Rd south of town. We’ll cross Fir Island Rd at Conway and head east through town, taking the second exit at the roundabout and continue across I5 and turn right on Cedardale Rd for our first uphill grunt. After joining Starbird Rd we’ll have a bit more climbing until we reach Bulson Rd. From there it’s several miles of downhill back toward Conway We’ll rejoin Cedardale northbound, make a little jog to the east to Burkland Rd. The rest is pretty much flat rural roads as we head back north to our starting point.
Pace and Route: Depending on group size this will be both a moderate (13-16 mph) and social pace (10-13 mph) ride. This route will have a little climbing and a lot of flat.
