On most but maybe not all Tuesdays & Thursdays,
there will be an UN-official ride that starts at 6:30. This ride is for those who have time issues and/or want to get a little more mileage. Alternates between downtown and the lake. Moderate pace with regroups. Prompt time start.
If 6:30 start is missed, there's the 7:00 Official Ride.
One important note: This starts early so we can get in 30 miles instead of the normal 20-22 mile 7:00 ride. This is not a "hammer ride", it's a fun 14-16 mph ride with some interesting downtown routes with Mason Dells at the end or the lake route with hills the first lap, no hills the second lap.
