2010 Mid-Atlantic rides

[Cataboo]

The Terry wild goose chase has been shifted to October this year:

The 2010 ride will be open for registration in early 2010. The ride date is Sunday, October 17, 2010. Invitations will be sent first to participants in the 2009 ride and then opened to the public. If you'd like your name to be put on a mailing list, please email talktous@terrybicycles.com.

This one day bicycle tour for women takes place in and around Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, in Cambridge, Maryland on the Eastern Shore. It's a spectacular way to enjoy early-season cycling while contributing to a great cause. In 2009, we raised $24,500 for the Refuge.

Dammit, I look forward to the Goose Chase in May. And October is already busy enough.

Ah well, perhaps the wind won't be as bad out in Blackwater at that time of year.

I'm kinda bummed that they're changing the date. The Marine Corps Marathon is two weeks after the Goose Chase, so I'm not sure I can take a weekend off from running to do the ride. I guess I'll decide when registration opens.

Just wanted to goose this in case anyone wants to join in -- The ride to end hunger in Calvert County is April 24. I'm in for the 48-miler. Registration fee goes up after April 15.

Thanks for posting these events, NY Biker.

I'm registered for the Ocean to Bay Ride in Bethany next Saturday. I may ride the End Hunger Ride in Calvert County on April 24th, too. That's a beautiful area of MD for a ride.

Tour de Frederick

I only wish they had chosen a more original name

The Tour de Frederick 1st anniversary shirt should be a nice keepsake. Hmm, presented by Fairchild Controls. My current company, Orbital Sciences Corp., used to be Fairchild and we have many former Fairchild employees.

I'll have to post the information on Orbital's Cycling Club web page.
