That does look like fun. I've ridden around Winchester - very pretty country.

This looks like a good ride. Any interest?
I am thinking seriously of going. It's a week before my MS150 ride so it would be a good warm-up.

I will be posting information about our local ride soon, too. (May 17 - hope you can come!)

Are you going to be out here then, bike4ever? I missed seeing you last year...![]()

That would be very do-able, it's close enough so as not to be an overnighter.
There are no route maps up yet but the brochure photo shows everyone on what looks like a bike path
How far do you plan to ride?
I still haven't decided on the [was it] Tour de Vine and you r MS Ride.

IFjane - Right now I'm not planning to be there - that could always change though. I'll actually be in Rhoadesville March 21. I'm not planning on bringing my bike since I know how busy I'll be.
Hi Jane!
I might be interested in that June 1 ride! Will depend a little on my work schedule 'round that time.
In the meantime, I'm signed up for the May 10 Capital to Capital. And will probably come up for your local ride, too, the next week, work permitting........![]()

It does look like an interesting ride.
Since I am nearly totally ignorant about life on the other side of the Potomac, it would be a fun opportunity to explore Virginny. Something, however, in the back of my mind says that weekend in n.g. I'll keep it on the front burner still. I also forwarded it to a friend of mine in Woodbridge. She and her DH are both quite active cyclists with 2 young kids, so this might be right up their alley.

I've got my big Tour de Cure ride the following weekend, so I doubt I'd get permission to do this ride, but I'll keep it in mind.
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

Oh, definitely do-able! Keep me posted! I might aim for the 50.

I sent the link to a friend of mine that has developed a cycling addiction.He and I may be up for this one too. I may also be up for trying the 50, but right now a lot depends on getting back some use of my right arm (long story). Hard to ride a bike when you can't extend your right arm. Also hard - brushing my teeth, shifting gears in my car, shaking hands, and changing car radio station. Just a little FYI.

I'll ponder this one & let you know. Looks like it'll be a good ride.
he he he - zen, he's a wonderful, handsome man that would be more at home at team estrogen.and i know he'd laugh that i said that.
I will at least do the 50 mile ride - possibly the 70 since I'll have to put together 2 75-milers the next weekend.
As for our local ride - Kathi, VB, Zen & anyone else who can come (pleasepleaseplease come!) - the brochures should be out tomorrow or over the weekend. I will post it whenever it surfaces. Mileage for it is 62, 40 and 16....with maybe a 30 miler thrown in for good measure. May 17.
Zen - the Tour de Vine is awesome! We'd love it if you could join us.![]()

So what's the deal with the photos on the site?
Is part of the ride on a nice path like that? surely not the whole ride ?!
