The Esker Awaits


 

We had a very, VERY hot, toasty ride last Saturday to commemorate the KVBC's 20th year. It seems bizarre that we were riding in snow flurries just weeks ago, and now, in mid-May, hunting for shade when the trees haven't even filled out yet. Many thanks to those who braved the heat and turned out!  This Sunday we shift over to the shores of Parker Pond and the verdant Chesterville Esker, where hopefully there will be an abundance of shade and temperatures on the cooler side of 90 degrees.  A reminder: if you haven't filled out a current membership form for this year to send in with your dues, you still have to sign a release waiver before each ride until you do.  I will post the KVBC membership form this week and I will try to bring copies with me to each ride.  In addition to signed releases, please remember that helmets are required at all KVBC rides.  Thank you!  And see you Sunday!
