Metric Century Gravel Grinder
Saturday January 15, 2011
9:00 am, Sunflower Bike Shop
Cue Sheet and Map will be provided.
Make sure you have AT LEAST 2 extra tubes, pump, multi-tool, etc.
Extra jacket/gloves recommended, especially if it's really cold.

We're gonna be out climbing some serious gravel stuff with nice stretches of flat between along some water. Very pretty scenery along some bluffs north and west of Lawrence.

Check out the map below, and check the elevation profile...If you're single speeding or fixie (I'm planning on fixed again 34-17), I would recommend a pretty easy spinning gear. I'm serious about a couple of the climbs, especially if we get north/west wind or there's snow on the ground.







See you then!
