Amish ride in Arthur IL

[Pax]

Bumpin' this one to the top. Any TE'ers still planning on going?

I'm glad you bumped it! Didn't know it existed and it's something I might be able to do.

(btw, Pax, I think you know my friend Sue from Champaign Surplus)

I sure do! Sue is a hoot!

Are you going to try to make the ride?

[jillm]

I think so. Group rides make me nervous but it sounds like a lot of fun. (plus there's that Mennonite meal...mmmm) I'll let you know either way! How about you?

We're planning on it, but I think we'll skip it if it rains. We don't really ride in a group since everyone rides at a different pace, we usually just try to meet up at the snack stop in Rockhome Gardens and say hello while we chow down on the cookies!

BTW - the ride is nicknamed the "Tour de Manure" for all the Amish horse 'leavings" on the roadway.

Does anyone know what the route will be this year? Just wondered if they'll go by the Rockhome Gardens. I enjoyed the route for the most part better last year than the previous one when it went out by the lake.

I checked the site and it doesn't say, I hope it goes to Rockhome again, that was a really nice place to take a rest and eat cookies.
