Type of Ride: Road
Mileage: 45
Pace: Medium

Description: This is one option of AACC's Spring Rider Roundup, 10am departure for the no-drop group led by me, 10:30am departure will be the fast group. Check the Ride Board for other ride postings for same day and meeting place, with start times set so we all get back to the park at roughly the same time, around 2pm, for a group picnic. The club will provide some snacks and drinks, but you may want to bring your own lunch. There should be enough different ride options that you'll find at least one will suit you. Or just show up for the picnic! This ride: We'll head south on Foothill Rd, climb Kingsbury, down to Highway 50, and take 50 around to Spooner Summit, down to Carson, then either a short dirt road or a trafficky bit on 395 to get back to Jack’s Valley Rd, then to Genoa. I'm riding with the No-Drop group, which will start at 10am. Note that a slightly easier option is to turn around at the top of Kingsbury. If you prefer not to have to wait for slower riders, you can join the faster group led by Greg Kogut, starting at 10:30 am - but please do slow down and socialize a bit before you fly by us! Feel free to contact me if you have questions about this ride.
