Our group ride this week is up in Niagara County at BBC Member Jon Siuta’s farm on Rt 104 in Lockport.   The route will start from the farm and head down to do laps of the BBC’s Freedom Run Winery Road Race course, which we’ll be racing on next weekend!

Parking:

Jon Siuta’s Farm on Rt 1045052 Ridge Rd, Lockport, NY  14094

Course:

https://ridewithgps.com/routes/42055139 Each lap is 7 miles with a short, sharp hill on Gothic Rd.  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.

Distance 5 laps (35mi) 4 laps (28mi) 3 laps (21mi)
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.
