Ride is on! Slight route modification.
Colleagues,
I am looking forward to the ride on September 17th at 9 a.m. The route is about 26 miles with 1,100 feet of climbing on gentle, bike trail inclines. Pace will be social. Shooting for about a 15 mph average moving speed with multiple regroups. The ride starts in the parking lot of the Starbucks in Gold River. Here is a Google maps link. https://maps.app.goo.gl/hReQXUw1SjbWcZ3C9?g_st=ic
There is construction at the Ambassador Drive entrance to the American River Bike Trail so we are getting on the trail a half mile upriver to avoid this. Here is the modified route on Ride with GPS. Please discard the previous map that was shared and use this one. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/40842956 .
I will also have paper turn by turn maps for those of you without GPS on their vintage bikes. Here is a link to the PDF of the turn by turn. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ep2...w?usp=drivesdk
A small group of us are cycling to the ride start from the Guy West Bridge at 8 am if you want to add some miles to the endeavor. Give me a heads up if you plan to join us there.
