You Must Lead a Charming Life


We've had some beautiful Spring days of late - to be followed by... more snow?  Ah well, it can't keep doing this forever (we hope) and here's hoping that the third time is the charm as we plan to run the maple syrup ride once again, on Sunday this time.  We are still putting some finishing touches on the special Total Eclipse ride for next Monday afternoon.  If you are planning to join in on Monday, please remember to pick up some eclipse glasses if you haven't already.  They can be ordered on line, or purchased at the gift shop of the L.C. Bates Museum in Hinkley, and many local public libraries are distributing eclipse shades.  More info to follow.  Hope to see you Sunday and/or Monday!


Sunday, April 7 - CHESTERVILLE
"Pishou's Sucrerie" - a sweet syrup-sampling ride from Chesterville to Farmington Falls.
START: 11:00 am at the junction of Egypt Pond Road and Main Road (about a mile from the junction of Egypt Pond Road and Tower Road).  As you turn onto Main Road (unpaved) there is a small parking area next to a small green dumpster; additional parking roadside. Signs say No Trespassing except with permission - John says we have his permission.
DISTANCE: 23.5 miles.
TERRAIN: flat to hilly; sandy road conditions call for caution on descents.
HIGHLIGHTS: a post-ride gathering at the ride leader's house for sap boiling and sugar sampling!
LEADER: John Lanoue, johnlanoue@hotmail.com
