Saint Paul Happy Hour #2

I took some of my favorite sections from several routes and combined them into a 33-mile route that I think you will find to be very interesting, fun, and challenging (Very Hilly!) Some of the trails are very rough and there is a short section of gravel covered singletrack, so a bike with wider tires and lower pressure will be much more comfortable. This is listed as a TCBC ‘B’ ride, but due to the many trails and hills, the average speed will be about 12-13 mph. We will regroup whenever necessary to keep everyone together.

Some of the route highlights will be, Indian Mounds Park, Battle Creek Park, Simons Raving and Swede Hollow.

Parking is limited at the Saint Paul Brewing parking lot, but there is plenty of parking in the 11 Wells Spirits parking lot.

I will have a restroom stop 7 miles into the route. The main rest stop will be at Starbucks at mile 16.

The ride briefing will be at the Saint Paul Brewery entrance. Rest rooms will be available at the ride start, inside Saint Paul Brewing.

I will not have any maps/cue sheets at the ride start, so please download the route to the ‘Ride with GPS’ app on your phone or onto your GPS bike computer. Or to print a map and cue sheet, click the GPS Route Link below, then click on More in the black box above the ride name, then Print Map & Cue PDF then Print Official.

After the ride, socializing, beer, and food will be at Saint Paul Brewing. They have one of the most interesting and beautiful outdoor beer gardens!
