�Is This Challenge Right for You?�
This Challenge is about personal growth, camaraderie, and celebrating your achievements along the way. Can you ride 30 miles at a minimum average pace of 10 mph on gravel terrain? Do you have a well-maintained gravel bike or plan to acquire one? Do you want to connect with and build relationships with other strong women in our community? Are you ready to conquer some mental barriers and feel stronger on the bike?
If you find that you meet these criteria and are ready to dedicate yourself to the program, then this challenge will be the perfect opportunity for you to push your limits, build endurance, and achieve your gravel cycling goals.
Group Ride Dynamics:
Our goal is to foster a sense of community, challenge each other to improve, and celebrate the collective achievements of the entire group.
What You Need to Know:
Each Group Ride will offer three pace groups to accommodate a variety of fitness levels and riding experiences: A Group: 13-15 mph average B Group: 12-13 mph average C Group: 10-12 mph average
Each pace group is led by a ride leader. These experienced individuals will guide the group, maintain the designated pace, and offer support throughout the ride.
Regrouping and Wait Time. While these rides may not be classified as "no-drop," we understand the importance of regrouping. Planned regrouping points with set wait times will be incorporated into the ride.�
Selecting the Right Pace Group:
It's crucial to choose a pace group that aligns with your fitness level and riding experience. This selection promotes a positive and comfortable riding environment for everyone. If you're unsure, consider starting in a group that matches your current capabilities and adjusting as you progress.
