We had a great ride last Saturday in Wayne, taking
advantage of some nice late-season riding weather. A good group of nine of us
rode in crisp, sunny late-Fall conditions, stopping at the Wing & Kent round
cemeteries, the Home Nest Farm scenic overlook, and the warm confines of the
Wayne General Store. The weather this weekend looks favorable for a Veterans'
Day ride on Sunday in Mount Vernon - for all you KVBC veterans this may be your
last chance to get in a group ride this year! We will reprise part of the
arrowed Mount Vernon ride from last June - there is a hilly 14-mile option, and
a more ambitious 29-mile option that also takes in a delightful run along
the Chesterville Esker. We may also get
together after the ride at the cafe in Mount Vernon (which closes at 2pm). Hope
to see you there!
