New, roughly 20 mile route out of Five Points, leaving at 10:00 on Sunday March 26. Not for the novice rider. Nothing to do with speed or distance but we will be dealing with a variety of mixed terrain, cars and pedestrians. Only last few miles is on the ARP. We will be in some cases dealing with traffic for short distances and going in and out of alleys where drivers and pedestrians may not expect you. You must be vigilant and cautious. Bikes and Tires?; I can ride the route on 7000X23 road tires BUT since I do not know your bike skills a tire 32-42 in width or mountain bike tires may give you more peace of mind I believe. Pick your bike to match your comfort level. Temple coffee stop will be roughly at the half way point. No RWGPS. I will provide route sheets. Hint; you may want to ride with me in the sweep position at a leisurely 13 MPH. I know the route...sorta. Certainly contact me with questions and concerns at 916-213-1799 or pinkdoglarry@gmail.com

Both routes head down to Freeport from South Land Park and then separate after crossing the Freeport Bridge. The short route turns right on South River Rd and heads directly to Lenise’s while the long route turns left and heads south to Clarksburg first before heading to Lenise’s.
