TOD Boxyard 42

This 42-mile route https://ridewithgps.com/routes/47317312 starts at the Boxyard - RTP's indoor/outdoor food hall. We'll make our way south to Cary then West to Jordan Lake. We'll roll past Jean's Neighborhood Market on our way to Jordan Lake, and then make a short rest stop there on the way back (~mile 26.8). For those wanting to shorten the route by about 7 miles, you can hang out at Jean's until the rest of the group returns from Jordan Lake. The terrain is rolling hills with about 1,800 feet of climbing. This is a no drop ride so long as you can keep a 14.5mph pace on this fairly hilly route. I myself expect to ride at 15 to 15.5 mph, and I'm happy to go slower to keep you from riding alone, if need be.

Please arrive on time so we can make introductions, do the safety dance, and leave together promptly by 9. Bring plenty of water and whatever form of electrolytes work for you. As always, helmet, water bottle, spare tube and basic tools are required.

If you haven't done so in 2026, please sign the digital waiver before the ride: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfZ7Gz6Zi9mbhgyt4KFo2ZLCRYaYSBXijcRYa6laoh_3O8dEA/viewform
