It’s been too long. Time for another big ride! And we’re mixing it up this time. Max and I have ridden at Stokesville so many times during the last few years, yet neither of us have done **any ** of the four descents on this ride: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/49023240. I am pretty sure at least 3 of them actually exist. Expect a steep, rugged, unkempt backcountry experience. I expect the ride to be about 46 miles with 9300′.
Schedule:
4:45ish – Wake up (yup this diminishes your Fri night drinking options)
5:30 am – Meet up at shrack
6:45 am – Ride
5 pm – Hopefully be done riding
6:30 pm – Back in cville
