This is the grandaddy of all group rides in Athens. Starting in December at 3 hours, this ride gets progressively longer and harder as local bike racers and a handful of pros come to town to challenge their legs on the rolling Georgia roads.
Each week, the ride takes a different route that will include at least one midway sprint section, a store stop, and a final sprint section. Between the sprints, riding is steady at around 20 mph. After the midway sprint, the peloton will regroup at the store, recharge and continue on.
The WBL also has a follow vehicle to support the 75-100 riders that show up.
