Pay close attention to the schedule and location of each ride below as starting points and start times vary.  Thursday the annual Boulevard Bolt takes place at 8:00 AM with many cyclists cheering on family and friends.  Therefore, we'll start at 10:00 AM on Thursday from the Model Airplane Fields.  On Friday we'll begin at 10:00 AM from the entrance to Percy Warner Park on Belle Meade Boulevard. 

On Thursday and Friday of Burn the Turkey the total ride time will be 2 hours of endurance pace with no serious efforts. 

Day 3 of Burn the Turkey consists of our normal Be There or Get Slower (BToGS) Saturday morning training ride from the Model Airplane Fields.  This ride usually lasts for 3 hours or more.
