The Rules:

1. You must be an SBRA member to attend these rides. It’s only $20…
2. My routes are very complicated. If you have a bike computer that is capable of turn by turn navigation, do your friends a favor and load the route. If you don’t, and get lost, you can only blame yourself.
3. These routes are designed to teach you how to conserve at the beginning, so you will be strong at the end. If you attack the early hills, then crack and get dropped later, no one will feel sorry for you.
4. I will lead these rides, climbing at around 3-3.5 Watts/Kg in general. On the steep stuff, I’ll keep it as low as possible with a 34/28. If you think this is an interval workout, you’re mistaken. If we all ride tempo, we shouldn’t have to regroup too often.
5. The group which I am in, is the main group. If you go up the road, you best know the route because your on your own.

Hills and regrouping ride. 

This is a B/B+, modified paceline ride. Once again, we will be heading out to the Ponquogue Bridge with a stop at, you guessed it, the Beach Bakery. After the century, I will be using new routes to keep it interesting. This route allows me to modify the mileage depending on weather and the spirit of the group.

During the break, I would like to discuss the riding plan for the century with those of you who are planning to ride.

Questions about the Century or this ride call or text : 631 804-0751.
