AV-B Ride 07/05: Pescadero & Bike Hut Classic
Hi AVB,
This week we’ll be doing some recon for the Pescadero Road Race (don’t forget to sign up to race or volunteer!) followed by an attempt at the Bike Hut Classic.
We’ll head up OLH and regroup at Skylonda, then will enjoy descending 84 where Bay Moto Photo will be capturing some pictures of us looking fast. We’ll regroup at the bottom of Haskins before recon-ing the climb and descent that are a big feature of next week’s road race. After a regroup and quick food stop in Pescadero, we’ll ride a bit more of the race course (the first two hills on Stage Rd) before heading to the Bike Hut.
After regrouping and recombobulating, we’ll give the Bike Hut Classic segment a go. I’ll be the team domestique and will bring a small bag to carry extra water bottles and saddle bags for riders who really want to give it the beans, and can also help lead out the bottom section. I expect to see lots of PRs this year!
I’m in relax mode after Tour of America’s Dairyland so will be keeping it chill and conversational on the climbs. Regroups will be announced and very obvious so everyone can climb at their own pace and save their strength for the bike hut segment.
