The new section that loops in Rocky Pond and cuts out the neighborhood? I’m down with that although we cut out a couple climbs and we’ll need a new “run-in” segment

Old (new to you) starting point. Same route. Here's what we did two weeks ago.

how about this then: either Pleasnt Ln. [purple] or Pleasant Ln. / Maple Way [purple & blue]? Up Pleasant Ln. will be anything but {pleasant} :)

No lollipop? Blasphemy...

I like the old route. Why fix something that's not broken?

Busick wanted to add a "new lollipop" I thought it was kinda fun.

One group with regrouping at the top of each climb.

The loop mark and I did two weeks ago was great, don't need any more distance or climbs if you include old bay.
I'll post up a GPX.

The run in is the old sprint heading towards the rotary. That road is still a bit choppy

That's what I was thinking Chris except using the old old approach to Coburn via Bolton Orchards / Walnut street (cutting out Old Bay and that whole northern loop)

I may skip that and head straight back to the Cafe. A bit sketchy and besides I can't wait for that delicious coffee and pastry ;)
