6:20am Meetup / 6:30am Sharp Rollout

This will be a brisk, flat century from Rocklin heading out through Lincoln to Garden Hwy, then along the river to Old Town Sac. We will have a snack/coffee stop at Steamers Cafe and then complete the loop via the ARBT and back through Granite Bay. Due to the forecasted heat, this will be a early start (we will leave on time).

This is not a hammerfest, but it will be brisk because it's dead flat. Expect long sections of consistent 18-20mph+ in a rotating paceline. There will be a few regroups in addition to the cafe stop, but there is no sweep. Be prepared, there is no water or services in the first 55 miles! Once we leave Lincoln, there is nothing until Old Town Sac. I will stop for mechanicals. Please print your own route sheet or load the route on your device.
