During the off-season October through February, Team Cucina Fresca meets each Saturday for a team ride starting at 9am. During the fall and middle winter, these rides are moderately paced to build up "base" miles. As the racing season approaches, the rides become more competitive as members begin to focus on fitness and racing skills. We will generally have an 'A' group (faster and longer) and a 'B' group.
Anyone is welcome to attend our team rides. We just ask that you are courteous on the road, wear a helmet, and have pack riding skills. Bring extra tube, air, and multi tool in case you need it. When it is wet we require full fenders and long buddy flaps to be considerate of your fellow riders. For 2011-2012 we will rotate through four different meeting spots around Lake Washington. The routes will be fixed each time so you'll get to know the area after a couple of rides and can join in or opt out accordingly.
