Hello Summit Bikers,
We have a change of plans for tomorrow's bike ride. The Ute Pass/Ice Cream Ride has been cancelled due to covid. Instead, we will ride to Green Mountain Reservoir. Tomorrow's forecast does not look good so if it is raining at 9AM please consider the ride cancelled.
If not, the start of the ride is at the intersection of Rt. 9 and Heaney Rd. Approximately 20 miles north of Silverthorne. Plan to be ready to ride at 9:30AM. Most of the parking is on Rt. 9 at the intersection of Heeney Road. Be careful crossing Rt. 9 as it is a busy road. Heeney Rd 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. Please pay attention as there are some potholes and a rough spot or two.
Afterwards, we will have a picnic at N. Pond in Silverthorne. N. Pond is across from the elementary school at the corner of Hamilton Creek Rd. And Rt. 9. Please bring something to share with your friends, whatever you want to drink and a sandwich (no grill). Be sure to wear name tags especially at the picnic. We do not rent the facility so hopefully it will not be in use.
One other thing, if you are not sure if you have paid or not just send an email to Chip Babbit (cdbabbitt@comcast.net).
We plan to reschedule the Ute Pass/Ice Cream ride later this year. If weather continues to look rainy I will send out another email later this evening. Hope to see everyone tomorrow.
