About this event

"N" meaning NEW, roads. With the new development around Sugarloaf there are some new roads. Smooth pavement and either 4 lane or two lane and a bike path. Of course, as with all Howey rides there's plenty of climbing on our favorite roads such as Buckhill, the Wall and Misty Mountain just to name a few.

This route is 32.1 miles with 1645 feet of climbing. Ride rolls promptly at 8:55 AM from Griffin Park in Howey in the Hills. (btw: Howey is maybe 30 minutes from the Hillsborough RC).

Typically, this ride will stay together for the first 5 miles, than you may ride at your own pace once we reach the first hill on Turkey Lake Rd. Break at Green Mountain Park around mile 23.
