My first major ride of the year was a 60 miler around Lake Anna in Spotsylvania, VA. This was the first year of the ride. There were 2 different routes for this ride, a 60 miler and a century. Both rode together until 40 miles into the ride. There was a mass start at 8:00am for both groups.
There were some issues with the ride, but when you consider the ride was organized by a 15 year old, to raise money for Law Enforcement United, I was impressed.
The route was setup well with rest stops every 20 miles, with water and some type of food at each rest stop. The roads we smooth and set on rolling hills.
If this ride is on for next year, I would recommend it for those trying to get miles in, or or those who want to do an early century for the year.
