Just an update to my first post on this...

I found another church that's not too far from the one I parked at earlier, and was told not to return. I called the new church first, and explained my request to the secretary. She was to discuss it with one of the trustees, and get back with me.

I wasn't home to receive the call first hand, but they did leave a message on my machine that I could park at the church. Yeah! I think I will have to call and get the proper spelling of the gentleman's name to send him a thank you note, and maybe a donation check. We'll see how it goes.

I also found out where the mass of cyclist I see on that route road park. It's a local school, but first you must travel a very busy road from the school. If I can ever get the nerve up to do it, think I may join in some time to learn some new routes.

Thanks for your posts on this.
