Ride Description:
The B ride will go out to Saddlebrooke via Tangerine, Innovation, Rancho Vistoso, Oracle and Eagle Crest Ranch Roads. Then up the hill on Catalina Hills Rd, then wander through the back part of Saddlebrooke on nice smooth roads. A stop at the store, then return. We will return via Clubhouse Dr and Edwin Rd. to Oracle Rd. This avoids the bad pavement on Twin Lakes Rd., but adds another short hill.
The C version will be a slightly kinder and gentler version of Saddlebrooke Wandering. We go to Saddlebrooke following the same route as the B group, but once in Saddlebrook we will skip the steep hill on Catalina Hills Rd and proceed directly to the store. After a short regroup, we will return via Saddlebrook to Oracle and mostly retrace our steps (before Tangerine, we will turn right off of Oracle onto E Vistoso Commerce Loop Rd which turns into Innovation) back to Brueggers.

Bagels and coffee at Bruegger's afterwards .
