Tomorrow in Richmond - Oakland Sunday Ride POSTPONED

Due to the forecast of steady showers on Sunday, the KVBC ride from Oakland has been postponed to the following Sunday, September 10.  We do have a treat in store for tomorrow, as David Lipman has offered to lead his ride from Richmond to Wiscasset, with a stop at Treats in town - and there may be another stop at the Old Goat in Richmond at the end of the ride.  Hope to see you Saturday!
