Details:

We'll be riding from the Heartland Shopping Center out to Richmond and back via Valley View Ferry.  The route is mostly moderate rollers except for the long gradual downhill from Richmond to the ferry and the two significant climbs after crossing the river.  Planned pace is fast A/B with a rotating  pace line, but this may vary slightly depending on group size and make-up.  

We will regroup at the top of the climbs and may take a short break near Richmond, but no store stop is planned.  Ride may be canceled or significantly re-routed if the ferry is closed for some reason. Please contact the ride leader if you have any questions.
