Frenchman's Social (12-14mph) / RL Shawn (Vancouver) 10AM

Is it just my imagination or are there no white or dark fluffy things in the sky?!

DETAILS
Length
: 32.4 miles
Pace: 12-14 mph
Terrain: Minor (Yay!)
Elevation: 569 feet
Ride Type: Group

 

DESCRIPTION

We start at 112th and Burton Safeway, traveling to Vancouver Lake and Frenchman's Bar and return. After a short burst of 4.6% eg, it's mostly flat with a few brief moments of less than 3% eg. According to Ride w GPS. Totally my kind of ride! We'll probably hover around 14mph most of the time on flat terrain (95% of the ride). But if anyone needs to drop to 12mph, no problem - we stay together!
