We had a great meeting last Sunday (Thank You to David Lipman for his office space and hospitality!) and we put together a full calendar of rides from April to October! We have another great season of riding ahead, featuring some new rides with apple orchards, steam boats, wineries and breweries, and a weekend getaway to the coast! Plus many of your favorite rides from years past - everything from hot dogs to apple pie! Many thanks to all of our intrepid ride leaders who offered to lead rides and keep us moving forward. If anyone would still like to lead a ride, let me know and I'll see what I can work out. Meanwhile, have fun in the snow, and start thinking of Spring when the Winter starts getting old. Our first scheduled ride isApril 18 - We'll see you on the road!
