We will be riding the Farmington River & Farmington Canal Heritage Trail loop!!! ๐ตโโ๏ธ๐ดโโ๏ธ
Distance of Ride: 32 miles (starting in Plainville). For reference, I'll post a picture of the loop in this event.
Pace of Ride: This will depend on the group, but I am guessing an average of 12-13 mph for the ride (we will go slower on the inclines and faster on the declines).
Breaks?: Again, this will depend on the group, but we will stop for quick breaks at some of the scenic locations.
This event is also new member friendly! If you have never been to an event before, and especially if you want to meet new people, then this event is perfect for you!

Note: Please make sure your RSVP status is correct by at least two hours of the event start time. In other words, if you are RSVP'd Yes and know you aren't coming, please be respectful by updating yourself to No. Any last-minute cancelations, especially if there is a wait list, will be considered a 'No Show' for the event & may restrict you from attending future events.
About the 32 miles: There are a handful of miles that are either on the side of the road or on gravel/dirt. For the 2-3 miles on the road, these are generally side roads and have a bike lane/signs (I ride this loop all the time on my mountain bike, so don't feel like you need the fastest road bike to do this ride).
