Friendly Thursday night LLF ride. We are offering 4 groups this week - listed in order of pace, with Adam leading the fastest and Mark leading a mellow ride.

Landlocked Forest is beautiful expanse of trails. The terrain is modestly technical with plenty of rocks and roots but mostly flowing singletrack. Practically all technical features including drops, jumps, large rocks, etc have a B line. These rides use second rider drop format to keep things moving but will stop to regroup occasionally - less in the faster rides.

Ride Pace will have slight variations and the best way to know what you are in for comes for riding with each lead in turn - work your way up in speed over time and start on a slower pace than you think for your first LLF group ride.

Two steps to riding bliss:

1. Sign your waiver (once a year!): https://smartwaiver.com/splash/17029

2. Pre-register here. Rides listed in descending order of ride speed from Faster Group #1 to Mellow Group #4

We'll be riding in groups of 10, being mindful of COVID precautions at rider discretion. It is going to be a blast to get out in small groups and spin wheels at The Fells. Two steps to riding bliss:

1. Sign your waiver (once a year!): https://smartwaiver.com/splash/17029

2. Pre-register here. A WORD ABOUT RIDE PACE: Rides are listed in descending order of ride speed from Fastest being Group #1 to More Mellow Group #4. Rides 2 & 3 move at a steady state – reasonable clip, take infrequent breaks and basically move through the technical terrain of the Fells.  All rides except for possibly #1 – use second rider drop.  While we work to define uniform language about ride pace it is good idea to a.) get to know the ride leads so you get to know their pace and b.) until that time, chose a pace one lower than you estimate you are up for! Win, win!
