Wednesday - SFCC Railhead – Shirland, Penryn and Indian Hill (traced) Wed, Nov 4, 9:00am 0 comments
Leave Auburn on Shirland Tract and Rattlesnake Road, roll through Penryn on Rock Springs, and find a steady rhythm on Delmar and English Colony. We’ll return through Newcastle and finish with the Indian Hill climb back to Auburn. This paved route makes one loop, with regroup at the Penryn Park & Ride (mile 11)
We'll also do ad-hoc short regroups as needed.
No formal sweeps but you will not be forgotten if you trail the pack.
I expect the pace will average 12-15MPH

Thursday rides are hilly, shorter, more casually paced rides (usually around 20 miles with approximately 1800 feet of climb). Ride is swept and everyone more or less stays fairly close together. There are also numerous regroups on this ride. Currently, this ride is out of Meadow Vista Park in Meadow Vista. The last Thursday of the month starts out at Railhead Park in Auburn.
The rides usually start at Meadow Vista Park. However, check the calendar for occasional changes to the start location.
Ride Description and Notes: Slight change in departure site, but close-by the Penryn Park&Ride! This is the Past-Prez B-Day Ride. Mini-cupcakes will be available after the ride. Heavy lifting on the back half of the ride so save a little. First head-count check at the Dick Cook turn (9.6 mi). NOT a rest stop so keep on truckin'. Regroup at the Shirtland Track turn (17.4 mi). Final head-count check at Maidu (20.1 mi). NOT a rest/regroup point. See you back at Griffith for cupcakes. See you there.

The Saturday ride USUALLY meets at PENYN PARK AND RIDE.
There is an A group and a B group. The groups can spread out then you can ride your own pace...usually two or three groups with pairs scattered about and some single riders too.
The ride ranges between 25-28 mi with 1000-1200k ft of climbing.
A relaxed-pace, no-drop group ride averaging about 12–13 mph. Routes are generally 21-25 miles with light climbing and no steep climbs. There are brief regroups along the way. What’s different about this club ride is that we stay together as one group and don’t break up into separate groups.
Sunday rides are at least 40 miles in length, giving moderate level riders the chance to ride a little further than our average distance. You'll find some rides that are flattish and some that are killer hilly. The average pace of the Sunday rides varies hugely based on the distance and the amount of climb. The start location of this ride varies weekly, so check the calendar.
A relaxed-pace, no-drop group ride averaging about 12–13 mph. Routes are generally 24–30 miles with light climbing and no steep climbs.
This is an EZ Ride with a comfortable, relaxed pace. What makes this ride different is that we stay together as a group. We don’t break up into separate groups.
While the pace is easier, we do expect riders to be experienced cyclists who are comfortable riding in a group and have good bike handling skills.
Start locations and routes vary.
