Sunrise Ride

MEET: At the Chevron station <http://gccfla.org/ridelocnw.html>  on the corner of NW 43rd St and 53rd Ave.

PARK: In the Chevron station, along NW 43rd St.
             Start at the north end and work south.
             Do not park in the slots alongside the station or along NW 53rd Ave.
             Please watch where you are standing; do not block the flow of  traffic going to the pumps.

TIME: Meet at 7:25 AM (EDT)
           Depart at 7:30 AM...sharp!

THE PLAN:    There's been interest amongst the Sunrise group to have a Memorial Day ride. This ride will be led by Mike Gamble and the route will be determined by those in attendance, but will maintain a ~2-hour ride time.

THE PACE:  Usual Sunrise rules. Overall Average speed = 19-21 mph, regroup at turns, no speed limit for the final run-in. (Back to the Chevron by ~9:30am)

THE LOWDOWN: By getting out earlier, the Sunrise rides offer less traffic, less wind, less precipitation, more comfortable temperatures and great company. There are no rest stops, thus maximizing our ride time. Get a 2-hour ride in and get home in time to do all the things that need to be crammed into your weekend.
