Mike, Allen and Valerie get ready to leave the parking lot
for
Hawthorne
In our continuing tradition of cycling and eating, Strays will ride
about 19 miles on the Gainesville Hawthorne
Trail on Tuesday evening March 27, followed by $2
hamburger / sausage-sub night at Market Street Pub.
Meet at 5:45
PM, at the
grass parking lot, next to the intersection of Angle Road (234) and
the
Gainesville Hawthorne Trail, for a 6:00 pm
departure.
No speed limit, this is a training ride, but mostly
hanging around 12 - 14 mph.
There will be a convenience store / rest room stop at the mid point in
Hawthorne, if desired.
For those who don't want to ride, or can't, but want to join us for
the
food, we usually make it to MSP at about
8 pm.
No pacelines, no racing, no wheel sucking, just a fun social
ride.
Helmets are REQUIRED on all
Strays
rides, mirrors recommended, headphones
forbidden.
Safety protocols are always observed on Strays
rides
NEW RIDERS must
read the following before joining us:
