too cold to ride this afternoon, so let's plan soom warm weather rides - anyone wishing to join us is welcome.
the rides will be on alternated tuesdays & wednesdays, begin at 8 am, and return by 6 pm.
these spring rides are all around 100 miles long except for the madison county loop which only feels like 100 miles ! they have around 7 - 8,000 feet of climb.
for me these are relaxed all day rides but there is always a faster group who does not poke along with me. ralph has put all these rides on the club web site for you to get your copy.
i will always send out an email notice one week before with details. 3 of these rides will have a remote start. as in the past few years, non-brbc members will be asked to sign a waver before the ride.

the rides are listed below :

tues - april 5 - hot springs ride - always our first ride of the season - still using micheal davis's pro bikes route
