Saturday, February 20, 2010 0900am Albuquerque East Perimeter (Clockwise)
This ride follows the usual east perimeter route, except that we get the hill climbing out of the way early. We will head out in a clockwise direction, which means we climb Tramway early in the ride. The route includes a visit to Mesa del Sol by way of the University Blvd extension. A slightly shorter option is available if you don’t want to visit Mesa del Sol and the Chris Chavez Loop. There will be a couple of re-group points as well as a food stop at Rolling in Dough Café in Old Town.
