The KVBC Ride from Wayne to Paris that was scheduled for this
Saturday has been changed to SUNDAY instead. We have learned that there
is another event, a 5K walk/run fundraiser for the local library, scheduled at the Wayne Elementary School on Saturday at the same time.
Also the weather Saturday is now calling for showers and scattered
thunderstorms. Sunday's weather is looking much more favorable, and
there should be no conflict at the ride start. Please forward this
update to anyone not on the list to whom you may have sent the earlier
ride announcement - Thanks!
Those of you who were disappointed in the cancellation of the
Lobster Ride and looking for another challenge may find this Sunday's
KVBC ride from Wayne much to your liking. We have a challenging but
doable metric century that will venture out to Paris by way of Buckfield
and return through Hebron, Turner, and Leeds. Lots of beautiful
countryside, and if you haven't done Streaked Mountain you can soon
cross it off your list. There is a shorter route of 40 miles with a
turn-around in Buckfield, and both rides are fully arrowed. See you
Sunday!
