Overall Difficulty:
The Frankfort Crew Rides for April will be primarily on "easy" to "moderate" routes as everyone gets their legs and lungs back in shape for the year. Pace groups will stay together, except on steeper climbs, and then there will be regrouping, typically soon after the climbs. The ride leaders will sweep each group and no one will be left behind.
Details:
The Frankfort Crew is BACK for 2017! We are again initiating the ride season from the East End start location we used a year ago - the parking lot just east of Rebecca Ruth Candy on US60/Versailles Road, east of Frankfort. For at least the month of April, we will schedule some "flattish" rides until we get our legs back in shape! We will again be riding to fun and exotic locales such as Millville, Versailles, Forks of the Elkhorn, Switzer, Peak's Mill, and so on.
We will try to post the routes to the BCC Facebook Group page each week, and we will post weather cancellations there, as well.
