Not GOBA Week
Start from Muffleheads Brewery, Wakeman.
This will be a star chase ride using the same route as Rob Hipskind's 3+ ride. Unlike a typical club ride, Rob's faster group will not slow to accommodate riders unable to maintain the pace, leaving them to be picked up by the trailing slower group. The slower group will leave no rider behind.
Note that the 2+* group will only be doing the first 40 miles of the route, not the additional 10 miles. Any 3+* rider that has dropped back to the 2+* group will have to end their ride at 40 miles.
See the description which Rob has provided for the 3+* ride.
Note that our starting location, Muffleheads, will not be open at our start time. Thus, if you want a pre-ride potty you need to stop in Wakeman either at the porta-potty at the Community Park on Railroad St. or at Mickey Mart between Rt. 20 and Railroad St.
Parking at Muffleheads: Rob has secured permission to park at Muffleheads. Please park closest to the road, and leaving the near in spots for customers who will be arriving before we return from our ride
As mentioned in Rob's description, there will be a rest stop at about mile 20 at Pioneer Spring Marketplace where a limited menu of sandwiches, baked goods and ice cream is available. Back at Muffleheads when we end our 2+ ride you can get a drink with possibly chips and pretzels. They open at 1:00 p.m. On Saturdays.
