UPDATE!!!

STARTING FROM THE SUMMERTIME PARKING LOT LOCATION!

The Starting Parking Lot is located in the parking lot in front of a building at - 

5114 N Mississippi Dr, Minneapolis, MN 55430

The building has a Biffie in front of it for winter since the wading pool is not open yet, 

but if flushing toilets are a must, then continue ½ mile south to Kroening Park, then ride back to the ride start parking lot.

ATTENTION!  Some mapping programs may not show the correct starting location.

The ride start parking lot entrance is at the very EAST end of 53rd Ave N

Rest stops will be - 

• 17 miles - Elm Creek Park chalet - restrooms, water - a shorter time stop
• 30 miles - Coon Rapids McDonald's - restrooms, water, soda, food, snacks - a longer time stop

Again, as always, the RideWithGPS route posted is only a general suggestion, as I routinely change it up slightly when needed.

This ride is a follow-the-leader keep-the-group-together at a pace that is acceptable to ALL that show.

I will be riding a road bike with 700x28mm tires, however, others that have had 700x23mm tires have ridden before with no issue.

Optional stop after the ride at Forgotten Star for refreshments and snacks.
