Sundays shop ride - Head for the hills!

Just a quick reminder that for the Sunday shop ride this week the Intermediate and Long groups will head for the hills!

The Intermediate group will do loops, while the long group will live up to it's name, going longer and hilly. The long ride will only be 26'ish miles, and was plotted out here, by Zac. We will have cue sheets and directions printed for Sunday. Remember that the long group is NOT no drop, but Zac and I always do our best to come back and pull you into the group.

Ms Tempo Multisport Metzger tells me she'll be riding in the opposite direction to the intermediate group, on the same course, that way she can advise on technique and ride with people as needed. Tammy will be assisted by other Tempo Multisport team members. So if you've been doing the no-drop rides for a while and think this would be a good challenge, have at it.

For some of those Intermediates who fancy try something a bit harder, come do the longer ride, after all if you bail on the ride you'll still be within 12-miles of the shop. For those of you with a road bike, this is the week to bring it!

Currently weather.com is predicting showers for Sunday, we'll send out last minute updates on the shops twitter.com account, if we need to cancel due to rain.

The hills through Lost Creek and Barton Creek area are really challenging but relatively short. I have only ridden through the area when it was dry, so if it is wet, you must be very cautious on the downhill portions because the turns are blind, there are guard rails and there is no shoulder. Use extreme caution.
