After Work - Short Hills & Interval Training

Part of the After Work - Short Hills & Interval Training Series.  This ride will be a slightly faster pace than usual on the flats at Brisk instead of Moderate.  There are a couple decent hills - both up and down - on this route.  We will regroup at the tops of hills.  This is part of a series that focuses on training for hills and intervals to build confidence and speed.  If the group is struggling with the slightly faster pace, we may slow down a little.

Rain showers cancel.  If there is rain, there will be an announcement of cancellation on the meetup site 2 hours before the event.  Ride leader will not be at the start if the event is cancelled.

Please come prepared to handle minor maintenance issues including flat tires on the route.  We will try to stay together when possible.  Please also bring your own cue sheets.  Cue sheets will not be provided at the start.

The pace of this ride is Brisk and we will move the pace along on straight/flat sections.  We will also enter trails at some points.  Please be courteous to other users of the trails.  Yield to pedestrians, travel at safe speeds, and maintain a single-file line while on trails.  

Please arrive at Celebration Park no later than 20 minutes before the start time for the SMART briefing.  We will roll out at exactly 7:00.
