About this event

Springton Lake Middle School to La Baguette Magique Ride (Out-and-Back)

Distance: 32.6 miles
Elevation Gain: 2,095 feet
Climbs: 3 rated climbs (per RideWithGPS)

Join us for a scenic out-and-back ride from Springton Lake Middle School to West Chester, PA, where we’ll stop for lunch at the always-excellent La Baguette Magique (https://www.instagram.com/labaguettemagique/). This route includes rolling terrain, quiet suburban roads, and a relaxing mid-ride break with coffee, croissants, or sandwiches.

Route Profile:
The first half of the ride features a long, gradual climb leading into West Chester. After lunch, you’ll enjoy a long descent that makes the return trip extra smooth and satisfying.

This is a no-drop ride — we’ll wait at key intersections and regroup as needed to keep the group together.

Lunch Stop:
We’ll pause mid-ride for food and coffee at La Baguette Magique in downtown West Chester before riding back to the start together.

Lights Suggested:
Even though this is a daytime ride, front and rear lights are always recommended for added visibility.
