Northwest Passage

Join us again for the Northwest Passage, 34 miles around part of Falls Lake in northern Wake County.

It's moderately hilly. I anticipate us having one or two pace groups, depending on attendance. I'll probably average 15 mph, along with anyone who wants to hang back with me. There's a good chance we'll also have a faster group. Please try stay together in groups, without leaving anyone behind, because this is not a race. We probably won't have a sweep for this ride.

If you'd like to print a cue sheet or two on Saturday, that would be wonderful. Regardless, we'll make sure everyone makes it back safely. You can find a map and cue sheet at https://ridewithgps.com/routes/33702551

There's a rest stop at a convenience store around mile 15 that sells drinks and snacks. After the ride, we'll head to Rudino's or some other place that has food and beer.

A helmet, water, spare tube, patch kit and pump are required. Glasses are recommended for eye protection.
