Twelve of the most loyal fellas east of Parham road gathered in the most well-lit parking lot in the city for today’s edition of RAMM. Route was posted early so there weren’t many questions. In fact, even Faceplant generally knew where he was going.
The Route
https://onthegomap.com/s/hg080or6
Everyone go east on Grove then south on Malvern into Windsor Farms. Begin the horseshoe, veering left at the triangle park onto Clovelly for some virgin ground. Touch the bottom then reverse course. 4s turn around at Park, 5s at Broad, 6s all the way to Top Golf and inspect the parking lot there.
Everyone returned on time before numbers, names, and YHC took us out.

YHC hadn’t Q’d RAMM since the summer so was well overdue. Creativity was lacking yesterday so the good ole topographic map of Richmond was consulted to try to find a strong contrast of red/green while keeping us generally close to the AO. Clovelly was found and thus the route was created using that road as inspiration.
It was virgin ground for YHC. Even if I saw 4 gentlemen exit the depths of Clovelly as I was entering, that’s still new ground for me. Post run mumblechatter was generally positive, with comments on how that road could be combined with other hills over there to make a better route than out and back on Malvern. Regardless, seems like a keeper.
YHC ran solo today but still had great conversation. You’ll have to ask what we discussed.
