Throbbing Thigh Thriller Summer Series 3 - ONLINE REGISTRATION REQUIRED! EARLY 8 AM START TIME
We are going to mix up the Throbbing Thigh Thriller with a summer series of rides starting at Blue Castle Coffee in Battle Ground. The summer series will include a series of 8 different routes into the hills north and east of Battle Ground.
The third ride of the series heads north with longer climbs and some breath-taking descents. It passes through the covered bridge at the historic Cedar Creek Grist Mill. It climbs Goodnight Rd and descends the twisty descent down Taylor Valley Rd. There are 1.5 miles of the route on HWY 503. There are shoulders on the highway, but it does cross a bridge without shoulders.
This ride alternates between the Throbbing Thigh Thriller Summer Series (this week), and the Non-Throbbing Thigh Thriller - which is next week. Cue Sheet Throbbing Thigh Thriller Summer Series 3-Manley Closure RideWithGPS Link: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/36560791
