ルートの詳細

This is a favorite Iowa City longer group ride. It is all paved with some chipseal and mostly older pavement. As you can see from the route profile, there are some good Iowa climbs and some long flat sections. This route starts from College Green Park and there is usually parking around the park, or there are parking ramps close to the park in downtown Iowa City. North Liberty and Oxford have convenience stores, restaurants, and pubs. Know your fitness level and look at the profile of this route, and plan for wind, as this ride can be pretty challenging. You could ride this route any time of the year, but it is best when the snow is clear from the roadway shoulders.

# Route
* Park: around @point[College Green Park](d,4.8) or in a @poi[downtown parking ramp](56995826)
