4.1 mi Out-and-back 141 ft gain

4.1-mile gravel route with 141 ft of elevation gain, signed as part of the local cycle network, mostly separated from motor traffic.

Thunderstorms in the forecast — lightning and cyclists are a bad combination.

  • Thunderstorms — lightning and cyclists do not mix — get off the road before they arrive.
  • Pavement: wet — wet during the likely ride window — reduced braking, road spray, limited visibility to drivers.
  • 66°F air — right in road cycling's sweet spot
  • 21 mph wind — noticeable — pacing will shift with the wind.
