KVBC RIDE TO ISLESBORO POSTPONED ONE WEEK -- KVBC
FARMINGTON RIDE TOMORROW INSTEAD!
Due to severe storm damage on Islesboro we will be
postponing tomorrow's scheduled KVBC ride to the island until NEXT week -
Saturday, September 21 (Rain Date Sunday, September 22). We've been informed
that roads are still closed on the island while they clear away downed trees and
washouts, and hopefully they will have everything cleaned up in another
week.
Larry has offered to switch his two rides, and we
will be meeting TOMORROW in Farmington instead, where the weather looks nice for
an early Fall ride to Industry and Clearwater Pond. We apologize for the
last-minute notice, and we hope you can join us!
