Description

Note: this ride date was originally posted as Sunday, July 18th, which was an error. I have corrected the date to SATURDAY, JULY 17th. Hope you can still make it if you want to.

A remote location ride in starting in Waterford, Wisconsin. Richard Schwinn, in conjunction with Waterford Precision Cycles, has sponsored and mapped 3 rides through the beautiful rolling countryside around Waterford, WI. This will be a joint ride with the Chicago Cycling Club, Kenosha-Racine, Evanston, and other Chicagoland area bike clubs. There will be a slow/moderate (12-14 mph) ride of 25-30 miles that is mostly flat and faster (14-16 mph) 45 mile and metric century rides. The rides will be self paced with sag vehicles. There will be an opportunity to ride in a group with riders from other clubs and improve pacelining skills. The rides will start from the Waterford Factory at 9:00 AM so allow some time to unload and setup. Richard Schwinn will give tours of the factory between 8:00 and 8:30. This is a great opportunity to see how top quality bicycles are built.

Remote Start: Waterford Precision Cycles, 816 Bakke Ave, Waterford, WI Allow 1 1/2 hours from Evanston, Take I-94 to WI-20 West (Exit #333), Turn left on Jefferson Street (Cty-W) in Waterford, Go South 1 mile, Turn Right on Bakke .2 Mile.

I would give you a ride, but I can't go. Curses to working on a Saturday! I hope you get up there, looks like a fun time!

Kelly-

There is no requirement to join the Chicago Cycling Club if you want to join this ride. We do, of course, welcome new members.

Hope to see you on the ride.

Do you have to be a member of one of these clubs to do this, or can anyone just show up?
