Description: We will gradually climb to Newcastle, then have a "fun" descent down Ridge Road. Afterwards we have to pay for our fun with 5 miles of some challenging climbing and some downhill relief going up Chili Hill Rd and Lozanos Rd. Rest stop will be at Carol's Market and Deli on Taylor Rd (near the turn up to Old State Hwy). Then we will "celebrate" the finish at Lew Howard with some cold snacks. **This route can easily be shortened to 58 KM (36 miles) by eliminating the Ridge Rd/Chili Hill loop.
