This will be a medium-paced climbing-focused ride from Rocklin to Meadow Vista. We will parallel the freeway up through Loomis and Auburn and have a short snack stop at the gas station in Meadow Vista. We will return via Applegate, Dry Creek Rd and Mt Vernon. We will then cross over to Lincoln and return to Rocklin from there. There will be multiple regroup points and a few water stops (as needed). There isn't any single killer climb, it's just a gradual uphill to Meadow Vista and then mostly downhill back. (No Mary Lane this time, you're welcome)
This is a rehab ride for me as I build back volume from a crash -- so I will not be hammering this. We will make an effort to stay together, but if you are substantially below stated pace, there is not a sweep. There will be regroups and I will stop for mechanicals.
