Velvet on the New River bridge east of Worthington
Springs.
Saturday June 17 Strays will depart from Velvet
Yates'
home for a 30 mile ride through Lacrosse, Santa Fe and
Worthington Springs. Velvet will be leading this ride.
Meet at 8 am for
an 8:15 departure.

Average
speed has typically been 13-14 mph in recent
times.
This ride is generally quite flat, but there is a climb on the bridge
into
Worthington Springs..
There will be three rest room / convenience store opportunities, at
about
the 4 and 14 and 26 mile points on the ride.
Post ride the hungry will head to a local restaurant for lunch,
probably the Uptown Cafe.
No pacelines, no racing, no wheel sucking, just a fun social
ride.
