Itinerary:

::NOTE START TIME::

Join me for this AOC Tuesday Night Bike Ride on the Big Creek Greenway. We'll be hitting the route at 6 p.m. from the NORTH POINT PKWY G'way Trailhead from there we'll headed out to the Union Hill PopUp Skate Park where we'll turn around and head back to Marconi to do a few Marconi climbs. We will be doing a non-stop effort due to loss if daylight, but have a rolling re-group at Marconi, then head back to the trailhead.

Arrive about 10-15 minutes early for prep, intros and such.

Also, if you're not familiar with the route, please visit these updated web sites; as we may or may not be grouped together due to varying fitness levels, my avg pace will be moderate - but I'll be looping back to sweep and check on things as we go along. Avg speeds need to be in the neighborhood of 14-15+ mph.

This ride is best on a road bike, but can be completed on any mechanically sound bike of your choice...I'll be on my gravel bike, so choose your weapon carefully!
Bring a helmet and a positive attitude...oh and extra water, it's muggy AF now!

GPS link above has location pinned

Go to the lower lot behind the old Ethan Allen store - shaded, free parking is available. There is filtered water, restrooms and a community repair stand with a pump at your disposal.

Notes:

Keep the rubber side down!

Super Marconi's are on tap: Start Marconi climb from WIndward, go up past the old Jekyl location, turning right then UP the road to Varint Healthcare offices - crest the top roundabout, head down the main entrance road, swing back to the left heading to the bottom of Marconi and then head back UP to Honda....voila- you just completed one SUPER MARCONI (1.77 miles).

SUPER MARCONI +
is a 2.9 mile add-on that includes the 14% grade in back of parking lot. Short, but steep effort just to add to the workout element...just be careful around the curb!!!
