This week’s ride info:
Mike is going
to be on a ride in Jacksonville on Saturday so I am posting for Saturday
and I'd like to include the MSTeam Gainesville group as well, I hope
you will come out and ride with us, it looks like it will be a beautiful
day.
My thoughts are to give us some options, I'd like to do the
Newberry Ride (48.9 miles). However, the 44.5 mile route may be discussed
at the Newberry store when we stop there - who knows, we may prefer to do
the shorter route depending on how the first part goes.

*Note: I am open to a suggestion for lunch after the
ride if anyone has any. Just email me at

*Pace: The HighBees ride pace has typically been
about 16-17 MPH; however, lately the group’s pace has been picking
up some. On the last ride the average speed of 17.2 MPH and the cruising
speed seemed to vary from time to time in the 18-19 range and sometimes in
the 21-23 range. Riders who were comfortable with the previous pace should
be fine in the middle of the pack staying in the draft and don’t
need to take a turn pulling. This remains a friendly, no drop ride; and we
slow down if we’re gapping and we re-group at all turns when
needed.
***If you are new to GCC and are looking for a weekly ride
with a moderate pace and moderate distance, please feel free to join us.
Membership Requirements: Please note that HighBee rides are open to all
GCC members who wish to participate. Those that are non-members may ride
with the group as a guest of a sponsoring member once without being
required to be a member.
