Group Ride for Sat. the 12th

What gorgeous weather we're having! I hate being cooped up inside an office all week long when it's so nice out - I'd much rather be out on the bike. It just makes our Saturday rides that much sweeter!!! It's supposed to be in the 60s the rest of this week and Saturday, which is just P-E-R-F-E-C-T riding weather.
I know last week's ride was a little challenging with the rolling hills that most of us haven't ridden on since maybe October, so this week we'll head out to REI along the Platte. This is always a fun ride, and a great way to ease back into the distances we'll be doing through the summer, as well as a chance to build up some speed in those winter legs. We'll roll out at 10:30am - with the higher temps, make sure you arrive prepared with fluids and some snacks (we can refuel at the Starbucks once we arrive at REI). Now is a great time to try some new energy bars, gels or chews to see how you respond to them before that big, organized ride you might be training for later this year; arrive a little early to check out our supply of snacks and pick up a few to test out.
We'll see you all on Saturday!
