The Dart 120 team ride consists of multiple teams, each with their own route, leaving the start location at the same time, returning 120k later to celebrate with the whole group.
The ride starts at 8a, finishes at 4p with some celebratory munchies and refreshments with the other teams. Each route is 120k, about 75 miles.
So far we have 3 routes identified, starting at the parking lot at the end of Lyndale Ave, next to the Minnesota River in Bloomington
1. Gravel - heading down to Lonsdale and back, about 50% gravel, easy class B roads - Scott Kies is leading this group
2. Road/trail - heading south and east to Hastings on the Highline, Pine Bluff and Spring Lake trails. Justin Tan is leading this group
3. Road - a more general road route heading down to Farmington and back on a combination of suburban and rural roads - looking for a captain.
If you know of others that would be interested in joining our fun event, have them register on the website and send me an email with their route preference.
If we get more than 15 riders (5/team max), we'll create another team and come up with a route for them
If you are interested in leading your own team and can find 2-4 MnRando friends to join you let me know and we can work out a route for you.
