THURSDAY, April 10th: Embassy Suites to Platte City

I plan to lead a ride from Embassy Suites on Thursday.  I will check wind forecasts and edit this post to include the route as soon as I get a chance.  I still plan on a 9:00 AM start.  The temperatures are forecast to be near 80 for a high, lows in the mid to upper 40s (probably the 50s when we start).  More soon.

OK - How about a ride to Platte City following the route below.  Breakfast at Roxanne's.  There may be some modification on the outbound route.  9:00 AM start.  I hope to see you there.




SATURDAY, October 26th, 2019: Knuckleheads to Kate's Kitchen: 9:00 AM start

TBA I will lead another ride to Kate's Kitchen from Knuckleheads.  The idea here is to ride to brunch from Knuckleheads leaving at 9:00AM for Kate's Kitchen at 80th and North Oak. Kate's has been great about seating our group promptly upon arrival, serving us quickly and presenting us with a selection of great items from their menu.

  The route is about 12 miles to Kate's while the return to Knuckleheads is approximately 21 miles of mostly downhill and flat, a good half of which is on a beautiful trail.  Two changes to the route have been made recently.  The "OUT" route now crosses Vivion and Antioch Roads at lights and the "BACK" route crosses the Fairfax Bridge (instead of the HOA) avoiding riding on 9 HWY from Riverside to NKC.  

  There could be a refueling stop at a micro-bewry in the River Market (Strange Days) or West Bottoms (Stockyards) before working our way back to Knuckleheads and their no-cover blues jam.
