Cycling Route
Details
40.13 mi
1,320 ft
Route Specific Notes:
*We'll flip it at the end of the pavement on Owl Canyon. Intermediate sprint to the "Pavement Ends" sign. Regroup.
*Shortcuts/backtracking/regrouping/fast-forwarding for dropped riders encouraged on the Owl Canyon O&B, by skipping the Owl Canyon O&B, or shortcutting on CR15 or any of the CRs- most are dirt so keep that in mind.
*Be very cautious of traffic once we merge onto Highway 1. Ride as far right as safe. Think about how your actions will affect the group.
*Once we turn right onto Douglas Rd be cautious of other traffic on the rollers. Think about how your actions will affect the group.
*DO NOT BLOW THE STOP SIGN AT NORTH TAFT HILL AND CR56 (Cement Plant Rd). We must yield to oncoming traffic. If you are off the front and delayed, your gap will be reestablished.
*DO NOT BLOW THE STOP SIGN AT DOUGLAS ROAD and NORTH SHIELDS. We must yield to oncoming traffic. If you are off the front and delayed, your gap will be reestablished.
*The finish is at the top of the cement plant climb.
New Format Notes:
*We'll roll from Cottonwood Glen Park heading northbound on Overland Trail each week leaving at 5:30 and expect the group will grow as people merge up from cross-streets across town. We're riding "neutral" in double paceline formation inside the bike lane until we cross 287 as a group. ( ≤ 25 mph ) Neutral simply means no attacking, we've generally been riding neutral until Wellington for years.
*One start group (no A/B groups)
*Women will roll out with the men for the time being with hopes of developing a WWNWs. (as decided by the women at the WNWs Summit)
*Riders off the front that are delayed by traffic will be allowed to reestablish their gap.
Rider safety is everyone's responsibility as is the overall health of the ride. Please do your part to make this ride safe and fun (relatively speaking).
