Clubbers,
Introducing a new group that defines "road" loosely. The GCX group traverses the unpaved roadways of north central Florida using primarily cyclocross equipment to maintain a moderate-high intensity training pace. Group activities include winter weeknite rides (Nov-Mar) and longer weekend rides year round. Group members a have a mixture of road and mtb backgrounds which mix happily, whether on dusty washboard limerock or sticky rain-soaked sugar sand. GCX riders occasionally participate in cyclocross races but their primary goal is training for road/mtb events and enjoying all that rural Florida offers when pavement does not interfere.
Cyclocross machines are recommended for these rides, but hardtail mtb bikes, particularly 29ers, can also work well. Ride intensity may vary but will be posted in accordance with recognized GCC ride levels. While this group is built on a foundation of A-level rides, we encourage all interested riders to join in order to provide the basis for a variety of adventures.
