Join us as we ride on the BBC Corfu Course, which is where we’ll be racing next weekend for the BBC vs GVCC Club vs Club Race against the racers from Rochester!

Parking:

Park at the Pembroke Intermediate School on Rt 77 off of Exit 48A.  Address: 58 Alleghany Rd, Corfu, NY 14036

Course:

Click Here to View the Course Page.  A 6.2 mile relatively flat loop with a couple false flats and punchy finish, great for an all-rounder rider! This is a cooperative ride composed of an A, B, and C group, with a designated sweeper for the C group.  Start with one group and drop back to the next group as needed since we’ll all be on the same course!  Stick with our ride leaders and sweepers for the amount of laps below.

Groups:

A Group B Group C Group
Distance 6 laps (37mi) 5 laps (31mi) 4 laps (25mi)
Pace 18-20mph 16-18mph 14-16mph

What You Should Expect on Ride Day:

  1. Please plan to arrive early to get into your riding clothes and get your bike ready.  You need a working road bike, helmet, and shoes.
  2. Check in with a BBC officer at the parking lot
  3. Determine which group you’ll ride with.  Your ride group is the same category as you would participate in for our club races.  Newer riders start in the B/C fields.  If you are a faster novice rider and can safely and comfortably ride in the A group, please ask a BBC officer for guidance.
  4. At 10am, we will be rolling out together and onto the course for the distances above.
