It's Going to Be 58 Tomorrow! Anyone Want To A Long Ride?

I'm thinking of doing a long ride tomorrow, probably 40 miles or so. Time to get the legs back in shape!

Anyone want to meet up around 10 to get some miles in?

There are a few shorter, slow rides on the calendar for tomorrow but no long rides yet.

The Half Acre team ride is open to all, it leaves from the Damen Ave Brown line at 9:15 sharp, we often meet up with some of the spidermonkies and make a nice group out of it. The average riding speed is 18-22 mph with some sprints along the way. We ride to a muffin/coffee shop in Highland Park take a break, and then ride home. Usually the round trip is about 45 miles.

a bit too fast right now! It could be a good goal to work up to. And it's 4 blocks from my house.

Julie, Velo Vixens has a ride tomorrow http://www.windycitycyclingclub.com/content.aspx?page_id=87&clu...

5300 N. Clark to the Botanical Gardens and back, probably on the N. Channel trail, 40 miles, leisurely pace. I don't know the VV club but it's on our calendar (see link).

I'd be up for one. I was going to join the Jeff Park tour, but I wouldn't require much arm-twisting for a longer ride somewhere nice. Have you got enough for a little group yet?
