Training Ride From Greenwood

Join us for a ride from Greenwood Park on a 33.4 mile route at brisk pace (16-18mph)!

Back by popular demand: more climbing! This route features 5 major climbs through Lake Forest Park, Brier, Innis Arden, and Carkeek Park. This ride will remain at a brisk pace, however, as we will do a full regroup at the top of each climb. 

Let's meet at the Greenwood Park and please be ready to ride at 9:00am. We will start with a required safety briefing, and roll out when that's done.  If you miss the briefing you will not be able to ride with the group.

We will climb and descend hills at our own pace, and our goal will be to regroup frequently. We'll also limit our speed on any multi-use paths to the legal maximum (usually 15 MPH).

A port-a-potty is available at the start. We will stop along the way for restrooms at miles 30.5 in Carkeek Park (and 17.3 at Lake Ballinger if needed). Many bathrooms are closed for winter, so only port-a-potties may be available. 

Bring a spare tube and tools to fix a flat, just in case. Please have full fenders if the roads are wet, or you may be asked to ride at the rear of the group.

Note: If weather conditions meet the weather cancellation criterion listed above or if there are unforeseen hazardous riding conditions or other unexpected events, the Ride Leader will post a ride-canceled note in the Comments section below at least two hours prior to the start and Ride Leader(s) will not be at the start location.

We hope you can join us!
