EVENT DESCRIPTION
Up for a steady but friendly tempo group ride that will net you a big lump of XP? Come join Ben Delaney of VeloNews for ride on the Big Loop, which will net you 840XP.
After a short warm-up, we roll into the 9.5km Epic KOM. After the descent off the Epic KOM we head into the Jungle Circuit, through the fishing village and the Italian Villas before finishing in downtown Watopia.
The pace averages 2.5-3w/kg, but that is not the absolute ceiling; occasionally you may need to push a bit to stay with the group. Typically, we break into a few groups. Wherever you are on course, you can chat with us the whole time.
