I'm going to have to pass on this one, ladies, sorry
Zen, I dunno where you're getting 108 from. It's 85 to 28 to 109 to Poolesville and a left on 107 (Fisher Ave turns into White's Ferry Rd). If you have time while you're in Poolesville, check out Bob's Bikes and donate some spare gear to Bikes for the World

"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."
David Desautels, in a letter to velonews.com

Zen, I just left you a message on your home phone. Tomorrow's ride is off for Regina and me; she's got mechanical issues.
We're shooting for next Sunday now to do a loaded ride.

Are we on for Sunday the 28th?
What time?
I have a friend who's racing the Ed Sanders 'cross race at Lilypons on Sunday and I'd love to see her race (IF she goes - she admits to lacking the "killer instinct" needed for a successful racing career - her group goes off at 1:30). No idea if it's do-able to do an early a.m. ride on Sunday and still make it up to the race for 1:30.2007 Seven ID8 - Bontrager InForm
