Heather Farm W.C. - August 2, 2023

RIDE DETAILS

Wednesday rides from Heather Farm are no-drop and separated into groups* determined by rolling speed. You select where you want to ride based on your comfort zone (see below). If you start out to fast simply wait for a slower group to pick you up. No rider will be left behind but your level of fitness should allow you to maintain the rolling speed for your group. There are frequent regroups on hilly routes to help everyone stay together.

All groups will ride the published route which will be between 35 and 55 miles in length.  Routes by may include moderate grades.
