This ride will average 12-12.5 mph. This is a no-drop ride. 

Big Dipper has new fall hours (opening at 3pm) so there is no optional Big Dipper run after the ride.

This is a B/C social ride with a rest stop at McDonald's. 

Tour various suburbs in Anoka County including Blaine, Coon Rapids and Andover. A mostly flat ride on the Anoka Sand Plain, with some gentle hills in and near beautiful Bunker Hills park. (We avoid the bigger hills!) 

The route borrows some of the nicer neighborhoods of Mr Rogers Neighborhood (with some variations). We go counter clockwise instead of the usual clockwise direction, so it seems different. Not left out are the Dinosaur and Elephant!

Most of the route is on quiet residential streets. There are some bike paths as well. 100% asphalt.
