Well, my original post was for a July 4th ride in order to get out and not deal with the crowds as a solo rider. I'm working on the 3rd, but if that's the date you all prefer then I'll catch ya the next time around.

Oh don't change anything on my account! I still may be able to make a ride on the 4th. I'll keep checking this thread and join you all if I can. Go back to the original planning, didn't mean to confuse anything. :)
OOOHHH! Now I get it.Quote:

What's Rt.34/Sheperdstown Pike like relative to road riding? Good shoulder? I may have to take a drive.
I'm thinking Rt. 40 W to L on Rt. 66/Mapleville Road to Boonsboro then R on Rt.34/Sheperdstown Pike.
Don't know how far it is.
What part of the world is this in? It sounds really far away.Quote:

Great ride for anyone headed to the Northern Neck for the weekend. It's on July 3rd (due to Farmers Market/Parade happenings in the start town of Irvington). More info at raba.org.

Antietem is absolutely beautiful riding! Go if you can!
Thank you, Tulip.
BTW, Slug- you went tubing in West Virginia last year and lived to tell about it;)
One of my most memorable rides was in Antietem on my 39th birthday. It's absolutely gorgeous! This year, I will be in the Northern Neck of Virginia, which is also pretty nice.
Here's what I'm thinking for July 4th: either the Lewistown Three Bridges route up in FredCo or one of the shorter Peach Tree loops down in MoCo. Anyone interested in joining me for one of those? If not, then at least think of me slaving away at work while you're all out riding on the 3rd ;)
You know I'd do three covered bridges.
How long is the three bridges ride?
I've got to get some serious training in this weekend, since I'm doing a sprint triathlon on the 12th and have not really trained for it.
