Upper Allen Friendship Park : 6:00 PM. This is a B pace club ride that is designed to provide an option between the C+ ride at this location and the faster B+ ride. This ride is designed to be a “no drop” ride. Participants should be experienced in bike handling and capable of sustaining a B pace of 15 mph to 17 mph. The pace we achieve on any individual ride will be a function of collective group fitness, route parameters, amount of climbing, etc. For those reasons our average pace may at times be very close to 15 mph; other times it may be higher. Ride distances will depend on available daylight, route, and climbing. We will attempt to include a mid-ride check in and/or a very short rest stop as needed. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/39398026

The next ride will be on Saturday, 3 June. The subject will be “The Impact of Artillery on the Battle” ( pun intended ). This topic will take us to the major battle scenes of all three days, and will cover a lot of the battlefield. As a note for new riders, this is not a difficult ride at all. We only cover short distances at a time and stop frequently to present what happened along with interesting facts about the battle. The Army calls Artillery “The Queen of Battle” and this presentation will clearly explain why they do. We do stop for lunch which will be another break. Due to Parking Lot # 3 being under construction, we will meet in the parking lot of the Lutheran Seminary’s Museum ( The Cupula Building ). The best street address is 111 Seminary Ridge. As always, be there not later than 8:45 AM and bike helmets are required. The rain date will be Sunday, 4 June and I will send out a notice Friday night should that be necessary.

Upper Allen Friendship Park : 6:00 PM. This is a B pace club ride that is designed to provide an option between the C+ ride at this location and the faster B+ ride. This ride is designed to be a “no drop” ride. Participants should be experienced in bike handling and capable of sustaining a B pace of 15 mph to 17 mph. The pace we achieve on any individual ride will be a function of collective group fitness, route parameters, amount of climbing, etc. For those reasons our average pace may at times be very close to 15 mph; other times it may be higher. Ride distances will depend on available daylight, route, and climbing. We will attempt to include a mid-ride check in and/or a very short rest stop as needed.
