Ride through Belmont, Wynnewood, Havertown, Haverford, Merion, Bryn Mawr, Villanova, Radnor, Devon, Wayne, Gulph Mills, Conshohocken, Manayunk, Bala Cynwyd, etc. Many hills, including 12 (or so) relatively long ones. One 35-minute coffee stop in Devon (Pour Richards) at mile 26 or so. (It's all about the coffee.) Will regroup at top of long hills as needed, but riders are expected to achieve advertised pace (which is what our computers read as "average" at the finish). PLEASE PREREGISTER: It saves time; and increases substantially my ability to read the important info on the sign-in sheet; and it does not matter if you do not show up since we will not wait beyond the scheduled start time. P.S. My on-ride phone number is: 215-837-2808.

Great roads with low traffic. We have a few routes that bring us out around or through Ridley Creek State Park. Average speed will be 16-17 mph, but note that these routes include over 4000' of climbing. Bring a snack for a brief mid-ride break. Consider the on-line routes approximate. Leave by 8:05 AM. Rain cancels.

Beautiful ride through Lancaster and Lebanon Counties for an al fresco lunch at the historic Jigger Shop in the town of Mount Gretna, based on Dave Ziccardi's classic route. Moderately to dramatically rolling terrain with a few flat and sustained climbing sections on the way out. After the short climb out of Mount Gretna, the way back will be noticeably easier and will include a brief water stop. Stock up on fresh produce, Amish goodies, and baked goods after the ride. Anyone wanting to ride a slower pace and/or do fewer miles can opt for a self-guided (after mile 21.3), less hilly 48 mile route which skips Mt. Gretna. We will start PROMPTLY AT 8:30 (no exceptions), so please plan to arrive by 8:15. If you get ahead or fall behind you will need to be able to follow the cue sheet. If it's your first time doing this ride, please contact leader by evening of Friday, May 31 with questions re. driving directions or parking. Bad weather, including extreme heat, will cancel. A go/no-go message will be added to this listing by 6:30 a.m. if the weather is questionable. HEAT ADVISORY: Although this route is LOVELY, we will have limited amounts of shade. Please bring (and consume) plenty of fluids and electrolyte snacks, and please remember the sunblock. TWO LEADERS, TWO PACES: Dan Operacz has graciously offered to lead a faster group, 15-16mph.

Lots of scenery and a few hills, out through the west side of Downingtown then down to West Chester and back. Brandywine Meadows included. Bring the camera. There will be climbing, but the pace will be moderate with regrouping. 2 H2O stops.

Ride level is B/B-: 15-16mph, 43mi with 3400ft. Meet at 8:45AM for 9AM start. It's a B ride b/c of the short and steep nature of the climbing. Expect climbing speeds of 10-15mph except for the steepest climbs. We will regroup a short distance after each climb to train pushing over the top and active recovery. If you don't have the legs for whatever reason, some climbs can be bypassed allowing you to regroup with us. This is my variation of the Dirty Dozen ride which is up and down the hills around the western burbs of Philly so Conshy, Manayunk, Gladwyne. Learn how to climb and get stronger as we ride them at mortal speeds. There are 6 big hills such as Harts Ln, Hagys Mill, Mary Waters, Rose Glen, etc...totaling around 3400ft. There is 1 quick water/food break at 30mi but ideally bring 2 pieces of food like energy bars for 2 quick food breaks each hour. Ideally, we should finish in 3hrs so plan accordingly. Route and cue sheet downloadable below

Consider this the next step up from the Toss of the DIce "C+", further (50 - 70 miles) and with more hills (3000 - 5000). The average speed (measured at end of ride) is likely to be 14.5 - 15.5 mph, it is the hills that push this into the B category. We will regroup as needed, but riders are expected to ride group pace. Bring food or money for snack along the way, as well as a spare tube. Check daily listing for route information. Ride may be cancelled up to 1 hour prior to departure time.

One 35-minute coffee stop in Devon (Pour Richards) at mile 26 or so. (It's all about the coffee.) Will regroup at top of long hills as needed, but riders are expected to achieve advertised pace (which is what our computers read as "average" at the finish). PLEASE PREREGISTER: It saves time; and increases substantially my ability to read the important info on the sign-in sheet; and it does not matter if you do not show up since we will not wait beyond the scheduled start time. I 'borrowed' this listing and route from Jeff. I hope he doesn't mind. Note: I'm super sore from a hike this week so won't be rolling at my usual speed. This will really be a 15mph ride and you probably will be waiting for me at the tops of hills. If you would like to be a co-leader, please be in touch as there's about a 5% chance I'll find myself too sore to ride in the morning, but I'm hoping and expecting that won't be the case.

Explore pretty, peaceful roads in suburban counties -- Montgomery, Bucks, Chester, etc. Starting points will vary, so that we can cycle through different regions. Please check daily calendar for details of each Friday's route -- terrain, mileage, rest stops, etc. If weather conditions are not conducive to cycling, this ride may be replaced by a hike/walk, or snow activity. As long as we are enjoying outdoor exercise, and Mother Nature, in the company of friends, we'll have a memorable outing.
