A fixer upper (or tearer downer) along Feagle Road
 
Saturday Sept 9 , Strays will meet in Myrtis to ride 32 of the most scenic miles of the Santa Fe Century. This will include the Feagle roads. This portion is never seen by people who do the 55 mile ride, or the Millhopper Ramble, and is the very best of the entire Santa Fe Century. This is a ride Strays do about twice a year.
 
Meet at 8:15 am for an 8:30 am start.
 
Ride speed range 5 - 36 mph, varying with terrain.
 
Average speed in recent times has typically been approaching 14 mph,  This ride has a few moderate hills.
 
There will be a convenience store / rest room opportunity at the beginning of the ride, and a visit to Kelly's Horse Farm at about the 15 mile point. Bring your own mid-ride snacks.
 
After the ride the hungry will head to Floyd's Diner in High Springs for lunch if the weather is suitable for eating outside, otherwise we will probably go to Conestoga or P'diddles in Alachua. Other suggestions for good restaurants always considered.
 
No pace lines, no wheel sucking, no racing, just a fun social ride.
 
Helmets are REQUIRED on all Strays rides, mirrors recommended, headphones forbidden.
 
Safety protocols are always observed on Strays rides
