No Host Road Ride - Rubber Mallet

The Bend-Cycling (http://groups.google.com/group/bendcycling) list is back on Google groups after being overrun by spam last year on Yahoo. I am so happy! Lots of great rides for all cycling orientations. Tuesday: Rubber Mallet (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/bendcycling/QrOsceLp8v8) -

• Meet at Pine Mountain Sports. Ride will leave at 5:30 until we have enough daylight to push the time back to 6.
• Spirited group ride for experienced riders who are not quite up to the Hammerfest pace. Last year we ended up with mostly Cat 4 Masters and Cat 4s. Come give it a try and see if it's for you. For the first couple months we will have 2 or 3 regroupings for riders who get dropped to catch back on with the group.
• Smaller, less-chaotic group that follows the rules of the road and rides safely and politely.
• Route will change from week to week, rotating between a selection of 3 routes, one mostly flat, one rolling, and one climbing.
• This weeks route - weather dependent climbing route: http://www.mapmyride.com/us/bend-or/rubber-mallet-route-2-route-185379842
