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.

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.

Did anyone do the tour de manure in Arthur today? We started early in fear of rain moving in. The wind was brutal with strong head winds. We were wanting to do the 60 mile route but decided to cut it short to 40 mile. Ended up being a very warm and humid day. We went to the Mennonite school afterwards for the lunch which was delicious. Just a very nice weekend in Amish country.
