Endless Haven of Summer

 

Our string of fine weather continued for last Saturday's Tour de Whitefield.  The heat of the day was (mostly) mitigated by lots of shade, Bryan and Holly shepherded us along, keeping us (mostly) on track, passing cars & trucks kept a (mostly) legal distance, and we had a great ride (mostly and then some!).  Many thanks to our ride leaders!  This Saturday we will return to some classic cycling routes along Summerhaven, with some new twists here and there.  Hope to see you Saturday!
