## Details

About 14 miles C- rating
8:30 AM

Start: Village Shopping Center

Ride Leader: Tim Sullivan

Description: The ride this Thursday is about choices! With the demise of Orange Pedal, we lost a tiny espresso joint and several outside tables. Starting from the Village Shopping Center, home to several eateries and a CVS store, we will head west for a pretty easy tour of the backroads off Mayberry Drive and returning through the lower parts of Caughlin and Old SW Reno. Once we're back, your espresso/coffee fix is available at The Roost, a local drive-by kiosk for many years. If you prefer your caffeine boost in the form of tea, 1,2 Tea is right across the pavement. There is no shortage of goodies available: Mix specializes in cupcakes, and House of Bread has a big selection of pastries as well as the outside tables.

E-BIKE NOTE: The ride leader is unable to handle e-bike mechanical issues (battery failure, flat tires, etc.) during a ride. Please have a backup plan in place for these events. Class 2 e-bikes are not permitted as they are not covered by club insurance.

RIDE SWEEP: Most of these rides will NOT have an official "sweeper." The ride leader will regroup at certain points. We do not want to lose anyone. However, please note the ride level before signing up.

RIDE SERIES DESCRIPTION: The Pedaler Coffee House Rides are designed for those who want a relatively easy, social ride, with the main goal of hanging out for good pastry and espresso after the ride. Most would be rated C and are fairly easy. We will depart from a different coffee house or bakery each time. Sometimes, when it warms up and we can start early, we will do breakfast rides.

NOTE: Check posting 2 hours before ride time for weather-related and other changes. Helmets are required and bikes should be in good working order. Please no ear buds or headphones. Be prepared with a spare tube and pump. Class 2 E-Bikes are not allowed.
