Ride Elevation
This allows you to choose the types of elevation gains. Combined with length you get an idea of beginner, casual, restricted riding ability and the avid, skilled, endurance cyclist. There is a lot of variability here in terms of length + grade (category climbs) and a rider should always review any posted events. A "Flat" rider can almost certainly still deal with a couple 100 yards of a 6% grade if there are only 1-2 over an entire route.
Flat (< 2% grades)
51 Members
Basically mostly flat riding. Includes things like rail-to-trail routes.
