Description

This variation of RPS_004 is a 19 mile route designed for intermediate-level cyclists. Ride Pleasant Streets (RPS) - Monthly Edition #04 Intermediate cyclists - Join us for this 19 mile, adventurous route that takes us through gems of Cincinnati! We will visit Xavier; Children's Hospital; UC Medical and UC Main campuses; Burnett Woods; the Civic Garden Center; and Wasson Way! The overall pace of this ride will be relaxed; the route is primarily on low-stress streets; and we will regroup frequently. However, as we dive into the heart of Cincinnati, there WILL be HILLS! In addition, the area around campus can be a bit more crowded with cars. For these reasons, this route is best suited for people with at least moderate bike fitness (or an e-bike), and at least several hours of prior experience on the streets. RPS_004 has two versions: one for Newer Cyclists, and one for Intermediate riders. We will all start together at Community Happens Here in Pleasant Ridge. After the visit to Xavier, the Intermediate riders will carry on toward Children's Hospital and UC, while the Newer cyclist group will head back toward Pleasant Ridge via Wasson Way.
