MN River Valley Ride
DATE AND TIME OF RIDE: Saturday, June 17, 2023, Ride start at 9:30 am
HOSTS: Bob and Martha Wavrin
DISTANCE: 33 miles
START LOCATION: 32349 230th St. (Sibley County #27) Henderson, MN
RIDE DESCRIPTION AND DIFFICULTY: From 32349 230th St. (or Co.#27), Henderson to Delia’s Mexican in Jordan – a flat to rolling hill ride through the Minnesota River Valley on low traffic count, scenic roads (except for approximately ¾ mile on a wide shoulder of 169). Highlights include riding through the MN Valley State Recreation Area (which includes a ½ mile of a lightly graveled road) and lunching on tacos at Jordan’s Lagoon Park, maybe even chillin’ the dogs with a dip there. There is a mile long hill, 6% grade, 2 ½ miles from the end of the ride, where we will have the option of loading tandems and tandem teams into a pickup truck for a quick trip up the hill : ) Keep in mind that the uphill at the end of the ride was a major, swoopingly fun descent at the beginning of the ride : )
