So....
We have a few of us for this Sunday the 17th at Riley's Lock at 9:30 for Tam's 30-mile route.
Who else is coming along? Dingster1? Any of the VA folks?
This will be a casual ride. No one left behind, no one gets bragging points for taking the town-line sprint ().

Good thought, I've been wanting to try Nilgiri's. If not there, I know they have good tea at Down-Time Cafe, on Patrick St. If we try one of your hilly routes one of these days, the headache tea at Down-Time might be a necessity afterwards

Did we decide whether we're doing lunch afterwards? Food's as important as riding, y'know. Not that I'm saying we need to, just trying to plot out the rest of the day. Originally Posted by Regina

I may have to pull out of the ride. I ran a 5k race today (did better than I imagined) but I twisted my ankle and took a fall. I'm sure I should rest my knee and ankle, but I don't want to miss a ride (or swim or run). I'll have to let you know later when I see how everything looks and feels.
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

Owie!!!!
Too bad about your ankle.
R.I.C.E. that puppy.
Hopefully, things will be good to go tomorrow for you. Cycling isn't weight bearing, which is good, but ya still gotta move it!

I hope you'll be ok, Nicole, it's been such a while since we've ridden together. But definitely don't push it and do something that would curtail your training. Let us know how you feel in the morning.

Tam.
I have the cue-sheet but the map won't print.
And the cue-sheet is littered with adds that make some sections unreadable.
So...
At miles 11-14 and 17-17.5 and again at 18-20, I'll be following closely!

I've got both, and I know those roads fairly well. We'll be fine. *Kali plots a circuitous route that will get Regina lost for sure... Mwaahaha!*
