Ride 35 – Miyun Lake Pre Freeze Ride

With the temperature dropping its time to visit our favourite places for the last time before its too cold. The Miyun Lake has been one of the most liked ride areas of the year so we’ll head back here for a last hurrah before it freezes over.

The Beginner route is another easy one – out and back along the lake edge. Intermediate also have an out and back route with some undulating roads and one really long climb. Elite circumnavigate the entire lake.

It’s going to be cold so come prepared with the right clothing.

All riders are required to fill the form below (including self drive) by Friday morning.

This ride is recommended for all new beginner riders. If you find the pace too slow next week you can move to the Intermediate Group. Its much better to start out on the easier ride and then move up rather than start on the faster ride and find yourself getting dropped and left behind.
