This weekend’s rides: Down Redbud! Lamppost!

SRC,

Wear your white jersey at your own risk this weekend. They can get stained easily with wet street grime.

Saturday we will change things up a bit with a generally anti-clockwise dam loop that includes the Cuernavaca/River Hills climb and a descent down Redbud to down town. The route is at least 57 miles with 3600 ft. of climbing and can be found here: https://www.strava.com/routes/6005513. After the ride we meet up at Lakeside for some discounted burgers and beer!

Sunday is our usual Coffee Shop ride. Our destination will be Lamppost Coffee in Round Rock. The route is 50 miles and takes us to Lamppost Coffee in Round Rock. The route is here: https://www.strava.com/routes/11766829 . This ride is ‘endurance pace’ and friendly. This means the entire ride should roughly be about 17mph average and we will try to keep everyone together, but it is still classified as a ‘drop ride’. If you cannot hang with the group after repeated regrouping, you may get dropped. We stop at the shop for coffee, breakfast tacos, pastries, and socializing before finishing the rest of the ride.

Both rides leave from Cups & Cones at 7:00 am. Come early on Saturdays to grab some coffee, kolaches, and donuts! Support our local ride start shop!

See you soon!
