Egan 2023.10

This week we are riding the infamous staircase route up Los Trancos Woods (aka Tippy Top of Vista Verde). We are also splitting the ride based on GC performance from the prior week. If you placed in the top 50% last week and your name is listed below you are in the front group. If your name is NOT on the list, then you are in the follow group. The ride leaders (Akin, Jerome and Mike) have discretion to place riders in either group, so if you want to be in the front group you’ll need our permission.
