Strongly suggested to bring sunglasses and/or visor as part of the route could be riding directly into the rising sun(light)!
Angel Food (donuts, coffee, water and restrooms) in St Louis Park, doesn't open until 7:00 am, so plan on using a rest stop before the ride. However, there is a "biffy" about a mile from the start so can plan on stopping quickly there if needed.
Same shopping center as Erik's, just a few doors down, along with wonderful outdoor seating area with tables and chairs.
WIll never repeat the same route twice. There's so much to see and so much to do!
This is a ride for adventure and exploring, not for beating the clock or getting a Strava Personal Best!
I will lead this ride at a BC pace, from the front of the group, with an occaisional "All Here?!" query and response, to ensure group togetherness.
Ride on!
