Granite Bay, Granite Bay Community Park, corner of Douglas Blvd and Barton Rd

Ride: 25 - 50 Moderate / Hilly Flexible

Leader: Steve Forsberg, 916-801-8295, rosevillesteve@gmail.com

Description: Weekly 25 - 50 mile rides in the foothills of Placer and El Dorado counties. Moderate pace (14 - 15 mph average). Generally 1,000 -- 3,000' of elevation gain. Ride at your own pace. Each ride will have at least one regroup or rest stop along the way.

Please note the revised start time of 8:00.

Tired of the heat?? Well then, here's some good news. On Saturday, the predicted high temp is only forecast to be 102. What a relief. Even better, the forecasted low at 8:00 is 68

. Regardless, I'm keeping the rides short. The long route is 31 miles with 2300' of climbing and goes to Double Shot in El Dorado HIlls. The short route is 24 miles with 1600' of climbing and goes to the Starbucks in the Safeway shopping center on the corner of Green Valley and Francisco in El Dorado Hills. Both rides begin and end in front of the bathrooms at Granite Bay Community Park, located on the corner of Douglas Blvd and Barton Rd in Granite Bay. Socialization at 7:30, sign in at 7:45, pedals down at 8:00. Hope to see many of you there. Please remember to ride single file and to yield to traffic.

PS. For those who would like to start earlier to get a jump on the heat, that's OK. Please remember to email me your miles following your ride. Thank you.
