Lodge Group Bike Ride Schedule - August 15 and 16

SAFETY NOTE: Be careful on Saturday's Ride especially in Group AA. The last couple of Saturdays there have been a crash at the U-Turn in Spoke 3 and at a couple of other places. Either the rider is coming in too HOT and the wrong line or there is some type of road debris – rocks or sand in the U-Turn. Ride with in your limit. Stay focus!

Remember to call/point out road debris on all rides.

We are creating a blog thanks to the help of Clint Burbridge for the bike riding group that meets at the Lodge. This will make it easier for you to check the ride schedule for the weekend. More information to come. Stay tune.

Pablo Rivera will be taking photos of the group on Saturday at the Lodge and then at the roundabout at 210 & Mickler’s Road. We will take more photos at a later date out in Nocatee.

Wear your best bike kit, shave your legs, and clean your bike on Saturday.
The blog design will be a work in progress for a couple of weeks.


Saturday – 8:00AM @ the Lodge – 35 – 40 miles round trip (See Map Attached)
Group AA = 25+ MPH
Group A = 19 – 25 MPH

Remember it is a warm up ride to the Palm Valley Bridge.

The Group will leave the Lodge South down PVB out to 210 though the roundabout and out 210 over the PV Bridge and make a Right at Old Palm Valley Road (the first Traffic Light) to compete the Nocatee loops.


See Attached Map for Group AA and Group A

Group AA will make Right at Crosswater Parkway (at the traffic Light at the end of Old Palm Valley Road) and complete Spoke 1, 2, 3, 1 and 3 before returning back by going up the ramp onto Nocatee Parkway.

Group A will make a Left at Crosswater Parkway and complete Spoke 2, Spoke 3, Spoke 1, and Spoke 3 before returning back by going up the ramp onto Nocatee Parkway. We try to make Group A a fast group ride. We will regroup at Old Palm Valley Road after the bridge. Turn around and look to see if we are all together.



Sunday - 7:30 AM at the Lodge – 65 miles.

This is a group ride; we try to keep the group together.
We will regroup when necessary for those loosing contact with the group.
Ride Pace = 19 – 22 MPH

This Sunday August 16 ride will be a long ride. We may include 2 water stop if the group needs them.

Remember this is a GROUP ride. Let’s try to keep everyone together back to the Palm Valley Bridge.

Ride Safe
