Planned after-work road ride from Kane County Government Center on a ~26-mile loop. Route does not have a water stop so please plan accordingly. Majority of route is paved though there could be a few limestone sections. Cross/trail/gravel bikes recommended but road bikes should be OK.
This is a DROP ride. Cyclists will likely separate during the course of the ride and not re-group. You must be comfortable with a fast pace, climbing and riding in pace lines (as allowed). Everyone needs to have the ride course on their GPS/phone and/or a printout of map and cue sheet. Anyone who falls back will need to continue on their own or return to start (there is no SAG).
Front & Rear lights MANDATORY. High visibility apparel recommended.
Please bring a change of clothes as many of us will plan to visit 93 Octane Brewery, 1825 Lincoln Hwy, St. Charles, IL for post-ride meal and beverages.
Hope to see you there!
