TUESDAYS 5/MB/32 The Tuesday Evening Ride
Quick-paced hilly workout ride -- focus is on intensity, hillclimbing, sprinting, positioning, and drafting. Meeting time is 3:30 p.m. on March 2; changes to 4:30 p.m. for the remainder of March; and changes to 5:30 p.m. in April. Meet at Spruce and Grizzly Peak Blvd, at the benches next to the reservoir (not the bus stop benches). We arrive at Grizzly/Skyline approx 45 minutes after the start time, for those who want to join there. To keep the group together yet still give everybody a good workout, we have explicitly defined parts of the course for easy, medium, hard, drafting, and regroups.
