Weather is warming
up nicely for August - with some storms thrown in - but hopefully the
weekends will stay clear. Hope everyone had a great ride last Sunday
from Farmington to Industry, and thanks again to Larry Childs for
leading. This Sunday we will return to Mount Vernon for a nice flat
ride along the Chesterville Esker, with some significant hills and
downhills before and after! We may regroup after the ride at the Post
Office Cafe in Mount Vernon Village. Hope you can join us!
