Summit Biking Septemebr 17 Ride

Hello Summit Bikers,
Next weeks ride will be the Green Mountain Reservoir. The start of the ride is at the intersection of Route 9 and Heeney Road, approximately 20 miles north of Silverthorne. Plan to be ready to ride at 10:00 am. Most of the parking is on route 9 at the intersection with Heeney Road. Be careful crossing route 9 as it is a busy road. Heeney Road is not very busy but it is a road with some traffic and people are encouraged to ride single file near the shoulder. This is the only Summit County ride with rolling hills as you ride on the west side of the reservoir.  Bob Giordano will be riding from his house at 9 am and others are invited to park there if they want the extra distance.  I plan to be riding and be at the intersection of Route 9 and Heeney Road.  
 
There will be a picnic at Bob's house (175 Game Creek Trail) after the ride.  He will have a grill available so plan to bring something for lunch, to share with your friends as well as something to drink.  To get to Bob's house, coming back from Green Mountain Reservoir, turn right on Ranch Road and left on Game Trail.  His number if you need it is 468-2515.
 
Remember to use hand signals, ride safe and have fun!
