AVERAGE SPEED: 13 - 16 mph. A guide only; actual pace depends on the group and to maintain this average, there will be some significantly faster stretches.

OTHER:
· Helmets are mandatory on all my rides.
· Ride will be “no drop” but only assuming riders have properly matched themselves to the ride description, average speed and terrain.
· It is essential that you take a minimum of two large water bottles and/or Camelbac. There are no convenience stores per se. Harry's On the Loop (beer/burgers) is still open (?); the hours are a little unpredictable. The Willow City Volunteer Fire dept. is still there and has a water faucet (bring extra Scratch powder or whatever).
· This ride is relatively remote to major mechanicals will be a serious pain in the you-know-what. Please make sure your bike is in good mechanical condition and that you have spare tubes, tools etc.
· The Loop road is public but the shoulders/verges are not. It is essential that you honor the rights of the private landholders.
· Please arrive early enough to prepare yourself + bike, have the 5-minute safety briefing to be ready for an on-time departure.
· In case of inclement weather, check this web site and/or my emails early on the morning of the ride.
