Ride Pace:
This ride accommodates various pace groups to ensure all riders find a suitable level:
- A Group (Fast) – Typically rolling 20-22 mph
- B Group (Strong) – Typically rolling 18-20 mph
- C Group (Moderate) – Typically rolling 16-18 mph
- D Group (Leisurely) – Typically rolling 14-16 mph, with a no-drop policy
Since rider safety is the top priority, the ride leader will discuss pace groups before the ride begins.
Group Speed: The designated pace refers to the rolling speed of the group, not the overall finishing average. Actual speeds may vary throughout the ride, and groups may roll slower at times. While occasional exceptions (such as downhills or strong tailwinds) may lead to brief increases in speed, riders should prioritize staying within their skill level and keeping the group together.
