{"id":674,"title":"Brisk Ride","description":"Brisk rides are for strong riders who want to ride at a brisk *average pace, with occasional sprints, and brisk climbs. The route and starting point will vary - expect some climbing and, in fact, on most days, a lot. Riders should know how to make repairs. Riders are expected to review online and understand the planned route. The Brisk group is NOT a no-drop group, slower riders are discouraged. <br \/>\r\n*Average Speeds \u2013 The speeds listed are average speeds maintained for the entire ride, not the minimum or maximum speeds. To maintain the average ride speed, riders will ride far faster and far slower at times. While not required, a cycle-computer is helpful to judge average speed. In some situations, leaders may feel the conditions justify a slower average minimum speed.","start_location":"Start Location Varies","unprefixed_start_location":"Start Location Varies","pace":"Brisk (>18 mph)","terrain":"Hilly","distance":"50+","ride_leader":"Dennis Cramer","phone_number":"541-773-5804 ","email":"scramer5804@charter.net","time":"Start time Varies","date":{"timestamp":1714287540,"formatted":"Saturday, Apr 27","midnightTimestamp":1714201200,"dayOfWeek":"Saturday"}}

The bike lane may be completed, however the signals at Main and Oakdale are not picking up the cyclist for safe crossing. Play it safe when crossing in this area.

The light at Main and Oakdale picked me up today, however it seems to only do one crossing instead of both. I would think it would let both crossings go at the same time given both traffic directions are stopped. Maybe that's something that will get corrected over time. It's gonna take some figuring out just how to place both my wheels so the light signals correctly. It should stay green a bit longer too, it went yellow when I was halfway across.
