Monthly Ride Schedules
Monthly rides schedules are listed here. In general, Saturday rides are longer and in some cases more challenging than Sunday rides. If you think any ride is too long for you, we encourage you to come out anyway. Some of the longer rides have shorter variants listed, and almost any ride can be shortened if desired. If you have questions about routes, contact Nick or Bill.
Please arrive at least 10 minutes early so the ride can begin on time!

Please Arrive At Least 10 Minutes Before Starting Time
Climb: Approximate amount of climbing in feet per mile.
Note 1: You can skip the climb up Afton Mountain by joining the ride at the beginning of the Blue Ridge Parkway (#8 on the Cue Sheet); this reduces the distance to about 41 miles. The Greenwood group will probably arrive about 45 minutes after they start out.

July 2009

Note 1: The full ride from Stanardsville to Skyland is quite challenging. You can skip the climb up Route 33 to Skyline Drive by joining the ride at Swift Run Gap (where Route 33 crosses Skyline Drive); this reduces the distance to about 48 miles. The Stanardsville group will probably arrive about 45 minutes after they start out. Note: an entry fee is required to ride on Skyline Drive.
Note 2: The bridge at Advance Mills has been removed pending replacement, so the early part of the route must be altered. Turn right (instead of left) onto Route 743 at Advance Mills (#4 on the cue sheet), then left on Route 605 (Durrette Ridge Rd), then right on Route 604 and continue.
