Protocol: Double paceline when conditions allow, jam as hard as you like on the climbs, occasional sprint OK, soft pedal for an in-flight regroup when separate. Regroup at the top of major climbs and bottom of significant descents — everyone descends at their own safe speed

Bring two water bottles.

Route highlights:  Two short spicy climbs, Huddart & Alpine, with ample opportunity to paceline elsewhere.

Regroups: will complement rolling regroups with stops every 10-15mi, next stop will be called out at each stop.

On the C Ride we emphasize group riding skills & communication in a supportive, controlled environment. We will keep the group together when not climbing or descending.
