Join us on Sunday, July 9 for an 8:00 am ride rolling from Cadence Cyclery of Encinitas. The plan is a 4-5 hour ride that includes some of our favorite roads, gravel, and singletrack. Ride will loop back to Cadence where we’ll gather for food and drinks post-ride at the Moto Deli cafe. These are generally fast-paced rides, with occasional regroups at key intersections and summits. This is not a beginner ride, and you may find yourself alone at some point. Be sure to download the route and have a plan!
