Note: Later start time today… 08:55 am ride briefing!

This is another version of my  “Back to the Box” basic route with some additional roads and trails to change things up a little… Also, we’’ll ride the 3 miles through the Rum River Park after our coffee break.

Our coffee break is at the Bridge Street Coffee Box in Oak Grove at about mile 40 so we’ll either stop briefly at the Coon Rapids Dam ( mile 15) or most likely in Bunker Hills where there’s a satellite at about mile 21. Bring some extra food if you think you may want something to eat before “the Box”.

Afterwards, we make our way south through Anoka and back to Champlin. The route is 67 miles long and flat…Can’t really get a much flatter route!

IMPORTANT: The ride is posted as an mapless, A/B ride. I’ll be riding more of a B pace for those who wish to ride along and enjoy the scenery.  I highly recommend you download the GPS file provided for the route so you can go any speed you like or if you get separated from the group. As with all of my rides, and as many riders have experienced, I often change up the route as we ride. If you have the route in some type of navigation device you might miss the real time route changes, but you’ll get back to the start/end.  

VERY IMPORTANT: The ride briefing is at *** 08:55 am *** and the ride leaves promptly afterwards. Please arrive at least 10 to 15 minutes before the ride briefing to sign in / check in and to get yourself and your bike ready to ride. Please sign in / check in once you arrive.

We’ll meet at Highpointe Park in Champlin. There is a satellite at the park, if needed.
