We had a very pleasant ride Saturday from Vassalboro out to Albion, with another great turn-out. Some riders even tackled the 50-mile option, despite the increasing heat of the day. Many thanks to Peggy for leading, and to Paul for assisting with the longer route. This Sunday will see cooler weather and the return of one of our popular rides from Gardiner down to Bowdoinham. Please remember to stay on top of your coronavirus precautions: bring masks to wear in close quarters and maintain distancing, and please stay home if you are feeling sick. Hope to see you Sunday!
