[C4 Rides] Past Sunday's Flowe Option Thoughts?

[Chris Ashworth]

I like yesterdays route as it definately gets us off Rocky River quicker.  I'll like it a whole lot better when I get my legs back again:)

I have ridden Rocky River all the way to Plaza Extension for years because that is where I live, but it has become increasingly dangerous as devlopments spring up each year and the traffic has increased.  So what was not too bad 2 years ago has now become dangerous enough to consider changes as its only going to get worse.  This was actually one of the reasons I connected with C4 club because we choose routes with some degree of safety of traffic patterns & volume.  

I agree with what was mentioned yesterday that Hickory Ridge is a part of the ride we all enjoy.  It always seems that no matter how spent we are, Hickory Ridge tends to jack us all up to ride at a higher than normal pace to the light.
 
I personally like the Zion Church climb at the end as it really tends to reflect the condition we are in.  Sunday I was in "no condition" to even attempt it and my legs let me know just past the driveway halfway to the top.

If you rode today's (yesterday's) Flowe ride, how about letting me know what you thought about the route option at the end.  I have my opinion, but I want to hear from you guys.  Keep in mind traffic compared to regular route and distance compared to regular route.  Anything else you got, let me know.



As we always say, this is everyone's club and we want to make decisions that make sense for the most folks possible.



Thanks guys!
