Usery Pass-Bush Hwy loop. 38 mile ride with plenty of climbing.
- February 23 · 9:15 AM
We will be doing a distance of 38 miles at a 15-16 MPH average pace. There is also about 1K feet of climbing (Usery Pass) This is a moderate ride and you'll need to be prepared for a minimum of 3 hours of riding. Bring plenty of water and snacks as you will need it. We will be leaving the Library's parking lot at 9:30am and proceed northbound on Greenfield Rd then follow the route 'till we get back to the library. We'll be doing at least two comfort/hydration stops (more if needed)
Here is the planned route:

This is a no-drop ride but PLEASE KNOW YOUR ABILITY. We like to be safe and keep track of everyone but it is difficult to maintain no-drop rides when a rider is not aware of his ability to maintain posted speeds.
Before the ride be sure to eat a light breakfast. Also please:
- Wear a helmet and bring a road bike
- Bring plenty of water and a spare tubes
- Wear comfortable clothing and dress appropriately for the weather conditions.
- Be prepared for approximately 3 hours of riding
- Arrive 15 minutes early and be sure to pump up tires
Ride leader is Tony Lozano

Are tri-bikes allowed on this ride or would I need to bring my roadie? Never ridden with this group before so don't want to break any rules!

I'm undecided right now. I hate going the opposite direction we always go. The climb up Power does nothing for me.

What time you wanna ride, Angelique. I have only been on the bike twice, since Thanksgiving, so I will be pretty slow! Where do you wanna start from.
