Saturday July 1 Strays will depart from Velvet Yates'
home
for a 36 - 38 mile ride through Alachua and High
Springs.
Meet at 7:45 am for
an 8 am departure.
Speeds 6 - 28 mph, depending on terrain.
Average
speed has typically been 13-14 mph in recent
times.
This ride is mostly flat, but there are a couple of decent hills to
climb.
There will be three rest room / convenience store opportunities, at
about
the 8, 19 and 29 mile points on the ride.
Post ride the hungry will head to a local restaurant for lunch,
probably the Uptown Cafe.
No pacelines, no wheel sucking, no racing, just a fun social
ride.
Helmets are REQUIRED on all Strays rides,
mirrors recommended, headphones forbidden.
If you haven't been on a ride with the Strays before,
you will need to read this information regarding
Safety Protocols: http://gccfla.org/strays.html
