The Plan: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/31466028 ABC=AshlandBikeClub Eli copy of their ride. Reputed to be one of the flattest routes around I rode it to examine possibility of a 4 lap winter century with little climbing There was actually a fair amount of short, but STEEP hills - especially in the Boon Lake region. The first mile or so of the rail trail was 6-8 mph, one foot clipped in and other just on the pedal to avoid frozen puddles in the ruts. This should NOT be ridden solo. If you fall and sprain/break something it may be a long time before someone happens on your body. I started from home to 117 and Sudbury Rd - about mile 17.5 and followed the route to Haskell Field, the Start. Then I continued as if starting.
