Route name is rosedale-butler-crusher

Slightly different from my usual routes in these parts; slightly shorter and tougher, including the long climb on Carter/Crusher. We'll make up for it with a stop at the Boro Bean. See the route for specifics.

Boilerplate: No toilets at start. Stops as needed. Planned rest stop at Boro Bean. (We'll be passing the Blawenburg Bistro, but I don't intend to stop... but we could...

Faster riders are welcome to come to the start, take the route, and go off the front. I intend to ride within the stated pace range. Nobody dropped.

Riders-in can meet us at Griggstown Firehouse about fifteen minutes after the scheduled ride start (or anywhere else along the route), but let me know in advance if you're gonna do that.

If you're planning to listen to music on this ride, use bone-conduction headphones. Earbuds, over-the-ear headphones, or music audible to other riders, are not permitted.

As always, I hope to see youse.

Edit: One member complained he couldn't get to the route on his phone. The web is still not optimized for phones (deo gratias, gott sei dank, &c), so I updated to include a link to the route on my personal RideWithGPS page, and the route name in the Club list.
