We had a great ride last
Sunday in Clinton and Benton - we were able to go biking with the alewives
without getting rained on, and Jeanine had picked out a great route that was
appreciated by the large turnout. Thanks Jeanine! This week we will kick off
Memorial Day weekend with an old favorite, the Cobbossee Odyssey, with an all
new ride start location in Manchester. Hope to see you Saturday, and if not,
have a great weekend!
