THE PLAN: We're switching it up a bit. We'll be heading out of the Chevron NORTH on 43rd. We'll make our way out to 121 and ride north almost to Worthington Springs. The last half of the ride with be the normal Sunrise ride BACKWARD...so we're coming home via Millhopper Rd. The total milage is ~41.5, so just a couple miles more than normal, but the sweet tailwind home should keep us close to our same return time.

THE PACE: Usual Sunrise rules. Overall Average speed = 19-21 mph, regroup at turns, no speed limit once we hit Millhopper on the way in. (Back to the Chevron by ~9:40am)

THE LOWDOWN: By getting out earlier, the Sunrise rides offer less traffic, less wind, less precipitation and great company. There are no rest stops, thus maximizing our ride time. Get a 2-hour ride in and still get home in time to maximize your Saturday.
