WRTR: Villa Perk and Pedal / 15 mi @ 10-12 mph / Ron Richards
About this event
Join me for a combination of coffee, socialization, and a short trail ride. We begin with coffee and conversation at the Villa Perk from 7 to 8 AM. Then, those who want to participate in a winter trail ride will leave from the VP Depot at 8:15 for a ride to downtown Wheaton and back for 15 miles. There will be a very short break at the Starbucks in Wheaton for the bathroom and perhaps a quick mid-ride snack. We will be back by 10:30 at the latest for those who need to get on with their day. The ride qualifies for John Riordan’s WRTR series. Make sure you bring a bike suitable for the conditions of the day which may involve riding in snow or wet conditions. Fat tire bikes are recommended. If conditions are too sloppy on the prairie path, we can substitute a trail ride on the Salt Creek Path towards Brookfield Zoo. The Villa Perk is directly across Villa Avenue from the VP Depot. Those arriving early for the ride are welcome to drop into the coffee shop to sign the ride sheet. The primary goal is to meet in person during the long winter season. All EBC members are welcome to share in coffee even if they have no plans to ride.
