Sat 10/21 morning ride

[cbusick]

I'm looking to do a 4 hour ride at a similar pace to last Sundays ride leaving from my house on the shrewsbury/grafton line around 8AM.
I'm open to suggestions.
For example, I could meet people in hopkinton center, do a couple hour loop from there and then ride home, or meet at the Berlin PnR.
If people want to ride from here we can do the Tri-State metric...

I’ll meet you in Hopkinton center. 9am?

[cbusick]

Ok see you then

[dantelman]

I can join in, but I'm racing tomorrow so can't ride 4 hrs. If you want to do a ~35 mile loop from here we can ride into Dover from Hopkinton. What kind of pace are you planning

[dantelman]

By Hopkinton center you mean the town common?

[pace21]

Yes the common. We have a loop that goes into upton and Westboro, I think that’s what Busick was referring to

[cbusick]

The pace will be steady, but hard on the hills. I'm training this weekend trying to get some fitness back.

[pace21]

A shortish loop is fine as Busick and I are both commuting in and we’ll get a metric total. Pace will be tempo with probable hill attacks/regroup. No drop

[pace21]

Ha. What he said ^^^

[dantelman]

Hey guys, based on the pace you rode last weekend, I think it's probably not the right ride for me, with the race on Sunday. I need to go easy with a few openers....
