I found a woody's trip report for paddling around there, so I'll go back to see.
You have a ton of traditions!

Yup, and I add new ones all the time. Gives me lotsa options for things to do :D
I usually don't have a problem finding something to do, but just don't tend to repeat things all that often.
So, tomorrow's the ride. What time are you planning to start riding? Still shooting for 8:00?
If you see a light green Prius in the parking lot, it might be me. You'll know by the personalized license plates. Looks like it will be long-sleeve weather, so I'll either be wearing a plain light blue jersey or a silver and yellow one that says "The Bike Lane." Any my shoes are red.
Cat, her friend Rob, and I are meeting at a park'n'ride lot off of rte 32 (in between 29 & 95) and driving up together, aiming for a start time between 8:00-8:30. I drive a black Civic w/ black Specialized on top, and Cat's got a green Outback w/ her Lightspeed on the back. I think I'm going to wear an orange/yellow/blue print long-sleeve, but I might have a jacket over it when the ride begins.
Soooo looking forward to this ride. I love biking in B'more :D
Did the 19 mile TdP yesterday with my daughter. First time for both of us - what a fun time! One more thing to love about visiting Bawlmer!
Kali, Rob, and I did the 41 mile tour - we had a blast up until the last 15 miles were like uphill on overpasses against a headwind. Then we helpfully made the situation better by continuously *****ing about the wind.
You may have been *****ing about the wind, but I was @!$&#$*#!@&#$!ing. It sucked. But the rest was great, I love the diversity of neighborhoods you get to see on the ride. And North Point State Park was lovely. I'll post a couple of pics when I get home tonight.Quote:

There was no "street", just a gravel road back into an old, seemingly abandoned farm
