Ride Notes:

• Due to the park closure, to cars, we will be parking and starting the ride at the Saguaro Corners restaurant.  The entry into the Park for bikes has changed.  There is a narrow path around the left side of the entry gate we will use. 
• We will view the sunset at the Cactus Forest Overlook.  This is the 2nd outlook you pass on the lefthand side about 1.7 miles in.  You can view as much of the sunset as desired and then continue with the last 6 miles.  There should be sufficient light to finish the loop but be equipped with lights as a precaution.
• The official sunset time is 5:50. This is essentially the time the sun disappears based on a flat horizon.  
• Our table at Saguaro Corners restaurant will be outside.  Check in under Cactus Cycling or Mark Mench.  We have asked for separate checks and the servers may begin to take orders as people flow in.  Please review the menu in advance to streamline the ordering process.  
• Have fun!
