We rode from Goodale Park north through Clintonville and over to the northeast side where we ended at Taco Nazo on 161 and Maple Canyon. We all downed some tacos and FREE horchata! Then we rode south on Maple Canyon through Tamarack and west over the pedestrian bridge to Indianola. South through town. The group did about 22 miles. I did 26.5. Great weather, cool and dry.

We had four people show for the TNR. Two new people, Jabar and Zach, showed up to ride. We headed out west and looped out past Georgesville Rd and back into Franklinton. Then up and over Grandview to 3rd back to campus. We stopped at Tip Top for food and drink. I ended with 17 miles. Become a fan on Facebook!

We had twelve riders for the Tuesday Night Ride! We rode north and headed over on 5th. Up Cleveland and then we headed through the fairgrounds to Silver Drive up to North Broadway. We made it over to Ferris and then to Cleveland. At Morse we stopped for food at Taquikin . Then we headed west and north through the Tamarack roundabout. We crossed the pedestrian bridge over 71 and then headed south on Indianola. We headed down Walhalla to High and the group started to break up. 22 miles. Many tacos consumed.

I received an email requesting some more information about the Tuesday night ride...   What kind of pace?   Approximate route?   Free-form or 'manners'?   Refreshment stops? Here are some answers... Our pace is usually dictated by the slowest person in the group. The route changes every week to make it interesting, but it is usually 15-20 miles through the city. We try to follow the rules. We ride with manners. This week we will be stopping mid ride at a taco truck, but we usually end at a restaurant. Last we ended at Marshall's in Grandview.  Hope to see you at one of the Tuesday Night Rides!
