Don’t let the name deceive you – this is our most un-mellow ride of the week. It’s a 2-3hr intermediate to advanced ride. Averaging 17-19mph with speeds in the mid to upper 20s at times. This is NOT a “no-drop” ride and routes vary. Riders should come expecting a challenging road ride and bring the proper equipment. Helmets, clipless shoes, two water bottles, and the experience and tools to change your own flats.
