Week 6 of Century Training rides. Please note the earlier start time. The route for this week was to be similar to last week with an extra 5 mile loop inserted before the food/rest stop, but due to the recent brush fires some of the roads may be still be closed or impassable on the weekend. I am trying to come up with an alternate route that would go out to Westhampton Beach but I may not be able to get the mileage close to 55. Average pace will be somewhere between 13.1 and 14.5, slightly outside the B- range at the upper limit, cruising speed on the flats will be higher. At this point in the training cycle only riders who are planning to do the century in May should attempt this ride. While it is a structured ride we can't be regrouping every 2-3 miles so anyone falling way behind the pace of the group may be asked to find an alternate means back to the ride start. Cancellation for any reason will be posted on the Ride Calendar no later than 7:30AM on Sunday. Please show consideration to the group by arriving on time and being ready to roll out promptly at 8:30. We will break up into 2 groups at the start if turnout is 20+.
