Ride to Clyde 

Moderate to rolling hills are the norm for this 53 mile ride (NB 1730 ft according to RideWithGPS, not 2280). Food can be found in Lyons and Newark as well as at the train club if you chose to stop. (providing it is the weekend they have their annual train event open to the public) You can even get a ride on a scale model live steam train! Bring your camera and maybe you can catch a compadre trying to be a kid again. We have ridden this ride in both directions. Riding the route in reverse means more hills after the train stop, but gets you to the trains around lunch time.
