to follow up on this one. Jonathan @ Alpha Bikes is the guy handling the Wednesday ‘beginner’s ride’. We need to get the word out about this one. I absolutely love what he has put together for a true beginner route and ride.
The route: http://www.mapmyride.com/routes/view/659928418
The route goes down Academy/Webb Bridge to the Greenway and then goes all the way to the Roswell / Old Alabama trailhead and back. The pacing will be around 10-12 mph and should be an absolutely ideal route for a getting started ride.
In addition, he is doing a second ride, once a month, that is a women’s ride. It starts up THIS SATURDAY. It is a great looking 27 mile loop around Alpharetta. Pacing will be dictated by the group makeup, and though the guys are welcomed, this ride is all about the ladies, and they rule the ride.
