This weekend many of us are going to race at Chappell Hill leaving both Saturday and Sunday without a designated ride leader or planned route. I’m sure there are still folks wanting to ride, so just show up at Cups & Cones for the usual 7:30am departure or fire off an email to the club to organize something.
See you guys next weekend!

Note: we have another 3 day weekend! After our Saturday and Sunday rides, perhaps a bit of punishment from our Bat City friends is in order? Check out their Labor Day ride: https://www.facebook.com/events/958272157628407/. If anyone else knows of other good area Labor Day rides, please share!
Saturday we will head out for a 65 mile loop around Pflugerville. The route is here: https://www.strava.com/routes/3955052 . After the ride we grab burgers and beer at Lakeside next door to the start so be sure to put that in your plans!
Sunday is our usual Coffee Shop ride to Red Horn. It is 50 miles and is at a more relaxed social pace than our Saturday rides, but we typically finish with a 17mph average speed overall. While we make great efforts to keep the group together, this is NOT a no drop ride. If you cannot hang with the group after repeated regrouping, you may get dropped. Red Horn is 20 miles away and is where we stop for coffee, breakfast tacos, pastries, and socializing before finishing the rest of the ride. The route can be found here: https://www.strava.com/routes/4736117 .
Both rides leave from Cups & Cones at 7:30 am. Come early on Saturdays to grab some coffee, kolaches, and donuts!
See you soon!
