Details: Meet up at Scott Park at 9am. This is the hilliest ride of the season and not for the faint of heart! This ride will encompass part of the Cedar Valley Loop taking the long way into West Liberty. Riders can choose to save miles through several side routes, such as IA-1 and US-6. Mileage and elevation is roughly cut in half for those who take Herbert Hoover Highway through West Branch. There is a BP station at the West Liberty exit, but otherwise there are few amenities on this route until riders reach West Liberty. El Patio Mexican Restaurant is usually a favorite place to dine.
Note: In the event that there is poor weather, this ride will be moved to Sunday with the same start time. An announcement will go on the BIC Facebook page should this occur.
