Event Description: We'll start the ride with a group photo in front of the historic Long Grove covered bridge. We'll be riding on mainly quiet roads and through neighborhoods with lightly-rolling terrain, including the newly-repaved Cuba Rd! There will be three route options, 23, 31, or 40 miles with bathroom stops on all routes. Following the ride, we'll have lunch at Joanie's Pizzeria (short walk from ride start). We have a large room reserved exclusively for CATS this year :-)
