Itinerary:
We will be riding a 12 mile loop beginning from Dellinger Park in Cartersville Ga. This is a fairly flat route with one long hill. There are some rolling hills with another short hill on the trip. We will be just getting the cobwebs off of our joints for the new year. No drop policy. We will stop and regroup at every intersection (about 4 intersections total)

You must be in physical shape for riding. Will be a go at own pace with no drop policy. There is one large hill. The rest is rolling hills and flat open country road.
