There will be two executive fitness rides offered on Saturday morning at 8am
AND a Cruiser Ride with Ryan Kragerud and Bicycle Longmont at 9:30
Here are the details for getting out of our seats and onto the road for some exercise Or taking a cruise through downtown. Leave your bike and Car at Roosevelt Park and take the Brew Hop Trolley to the Museum for the 10:30 session and 12:30 Pitch Fest. Trolley will return from Museum to Park at 2pm.
The gist is a no-drop ride at two different base speeds: a touch over 14 mph and a touch over 18 mph. This should be conversational pace for most of the group. But there's more. The rides have some short High Intensity efforts sprinkled in to provide some banter where legs do the talking. After blowing out the carbon, the front group of riders will circle back to do a "pick me up" to encourage subsequent riders through their effort.
We will have two groups for the endurance ride.
Clint Bickmore will lead one group on the following route.

This should take an hour and a half at just over 18 MPH.
Dixon Dick is going to lead the second group on this route.

We need them to bust it out in an hour and a half too.
We will then meet back up at Roosevelt park at 9:30 for the cruiser ride. Riders can elect to cruise or trolley to the next sessions. Trolley schedule will be posted here soon.
The cruiser ride is focused on community building as opposed to a hard core effort. We will don our cruiser 'tude and stroll through Old Town to the Longmont Library. Some riders will jump into a session at the library, and others will continue to the Longmont Museum complex.
All riders should refresh themselves with the CDOT Bicycle manual found here.

Rubber hits the road at 8 AM.
