Brisk pace ride, with regular regroup points, and a few hot spot" sprint points: Akins High school hilltop, Creedmoor run-in on SR1327, and the return on Old Lockhart Rd to Slaughter ... moreLane intersection. No drop; we'll regroup after stoplights or anywhere the group can get split, and after each hot spot; and refuel at the Creedmoor Valero station.

Because of the in-town stretches, this ride averages about 15 mph. That's the average speed your computer will show after the ride, with stoplights, turns, hills, etc. But to average 15 you need to ride 16-18 most of the time on the flats, so please come expecting that.

Please be sure to arrive 10 minutes early for rider's meeting and to meet newcomers. If you arrive at 7:31 you may find an empty parking lot.

Start Location: meet (and park) at the back of the uphill parking lot across Lake Austin Blvd. from Mozart’s Coffee Roasters http://www.mozartscoffee.com/austin_coffee_location_hours.php Look for the old boat on your left up the hill; we're near there.
