Join us this Wednesday, July 23rd, 2014, at 6:00 PM, for another Wednesday Night Training Ride!
The Wednesday group will be riding out of Kirkwood Park tennis courts parking lot again (image of parking location below). Please try to be there 10-15 minutes early so we can be rolling by 6pm. We had a great group last week of 12 riders and a couple new UBD attendees that joined us for the first time this year, so it’s never too late to come out and make your inaugural Wednesday ramble.
This is a no drop ride that averages 16-18mph on a typical night and takes us on 26 miles of mostly rolling terrain on the roads from Kirkwood to Chesterfield and back. As the heat and humidity rise, there is always the option of a slightly shorter route of about 22 miles you can take if you’re just not feeling it on a given night. Afterwards, there is a chance we will stick around for beer and Gatorade while we catch our breath and replenish those fluids. Route map of the typical route is below, the 22 mile route knocks off about 4 miles on the out and back on Outer 40:
· While the Tuesday night ride has proven to be a great opportunity for all levels of cyclists to get out on a dedicated bike trail, we wanted to offer the Wednesday night Kirkwood ride to those looking for a higher tempo workout. It’s always a no drop ride so nobody will be left behind, but it’s important you be comfortable cycling in a group on the roads.
Looking forward to riding with you!
