380-3380 | Performance Bike Shop Carboro | Pace range will be between 10 mph (on tougher
hills) to 20 mph (flat roads). Work the hills
and short sprints upon visual contact of
county/town signs for spice, followed by
regrouping. This will be primarily an endurance
ride that will regroup at the turns. No time
trial or long anaerobic efforts, please.
However, if you cannot average 16-17 mph
for a 50-mile ride in a group/paceline-friendly
setting, this ride may be too fast for you.
Route maps will be provided. After-ride meal/gathering at Armadillo Grill (Southwestern) on Main Street, Carrboro. |

779-1175 | Lake Wheeler Park | To Thanksgiving Fire District |
27 | Thur | 09:00 | 50 | 18 | Laura Weislo | 302-8974 | Brier Creek Shopping Center | Tour de Burning Pie. Meet at the Caribou Coffee (park on the
other side of the building from the
entrance)
in Brier Creek - just off I-70 west
of the
70/I-540 junction. (Dick's is the most
visible
store from 70, Caribou is the third
entrance
off Brier Creek, I think.) Pace will be sufficient to make you feel less guilty about stuffing yourself later, but not so hard so that you'll fall asleep on the in-laws. |

Food Lion Rolesville | Thanksgiving Recovery Metric: My plan is to "slowly" burn-off
a few left-over calories from Thanksgiving
dinner, before I have to chase the Road Dogs
around on Saturday. The route will be to
the east of Rolesville, so we won't have
to carry our left-over Turkey and Pumpkin-pie
up any big hills. Theere will be one planned
break. Ya'll come! PS. Standard weather disclaimer applies: If it's rainy wet and miserable - stay on the porch and finish the left-overs. |
