Speedtrap Ride Tuesday June 20th
The Speedtrap Ride, one of America’s great Tuesday night rides, will roll out once again tomorrow, Tuesday, June 20th, from Spoke Life Cycles in Elmore, Ohio, at 6:30 pm.
Scott Lang’s Ghost Pepper Riders will ride a 25-mile course and likely average 22 – 23+ mph. However, I believe Scott is in Hawaii. The Ghost Pepper Riders will need a substitute leader. Are you up to the challenge?
Bob Kayden should be back to lead the Cayenne Pepper Riders at 21 – 22 mph.
Doug Kilpatrick will take out his Habanero Riders and likely average 20+/- mph.
Todd Pollock and his Jalapeno Riders will likely average anywhere from 16 – 19 mph.
I plan to be present for the Sweet Pepper Riders. Averages have been about 16 mph.
At ride time it is predicted to be partly cloudy, with little or no chance of rain, with a temperature of 79 degrees. However, an east wind of 13 mph is predicted. The wind is likely to make the return-to-Elmore portion of the ride a challenge for some, and perhaps bring some averages down once again! Will the east wind ever stop??!!
Sign-in begins at 6:00 in front of the bike shop. I hope to see you then!
