Friday Bike Rides??
In addition to our Wednesday bike rides at various locations
this Winter, let’s see if we can also do a Friday afternoon ride most Fridays
at Lake Beresford Park in Deland. We’ll see how it goes, but here is the first
outing.
Casual Bike Ride – Friday, December 15, 2017, 3-5 pm
Join us for an 8-15 mile casual ride at Lake Beresford Park,
2100 Fatio Road, Deland, Florida and heading toward Blue Springs on one of the
Spring-to-Spring trail routes. It is a paved, off-road trail. We will first do
the 2 mile loop trail to be sure everyone is on board with equipment and
conditioning. We run 8-10 miles per hour (D-C Class- no one left behind!) Then
we will head for Blue Springs for about 2.8 miles. Expect a few very moderate
hills. (Florida ain’t ALL flat.) Then we will cover the new extension for as
far as the group wants. A little rest and back to Beresford Park. A total of
about 8-15 miles depending on the group. Helmets and water recommended. Adults
only. Meet at Roger’s Jeep. There are restrooms and water at Beresford Park.
May see a variety of wildlife along the way. Heavy rain or lightning cancels.
Would appreciate a note that you will join us.
Thanks,
Roger
