B19a, WP54.3 Belted Goat via Bynum *8:05 AM*
Details
*****NOTE NEW TIME - 8.05AM*****
To keep the rides at a reasonable size, we are going to try two identical B19 rides (B19a @ 8.05am and B19b @ 8.10am), with 12-rider limits. If one ride is full, please sign up for the other - there are no "faster vs slower" B19 - you're not missing out by choosing one or the other
Goal is a brisk group ride, maintaining an organized pace line, going easy on the climbs and speeding up on the descents and communicating potential hazards to the group.
