The weather forecasters have been
throwing the S-word around this week (and we're not talking "sunny").
Haven't seen anything yet, but it sure feels like it. This weekend
still looks pretty good, with conditions a bit warmer on Sunday, so
we'll try for another November ride, this time in Mount Vernon and
Chesterville - 29 miles with a shorter 14 mile option. Plus a potential
stop at the cafe in Mount Vernon at the ride's end. Once again, I'll
bring along the new KVBC jerseys for those of you still waiting for
yours. And if you are hankering for one of the original KVBC jerseys
(as someone asked about), let me know, and if there's enough interest
I'll see about placing another order. Stay warm, and see you Sunday!
