    I think I'd prefer this Saturday, September 20 over the 28th if that's ok with you. (I'm spending all day the 27th in a kayaking lesson, and I'd rather not commit the 28th also.)

    Okay.
    I'm game.
    Anyone else??
    Join us even if you're not "in training" for anything in particular.

    My September/October calendar, as usual, is getting chocka-block full and I may need this Saturday just to catch up on stuff. Any idea where you would ride?

    Janice, did you get a paddle float yet?

    No idea where we're riding; we haven't gotten that far yet.

    No paddle float yet; I thought I'd take the class and see how to use it and what they recommend.

    7rider and I propose that we meet at Whites Ferry at 10am Saturday and ride 15 miles north, have lunch, then ride back. Sound ok?

    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

    Are those directions from my direction or your direction?

    We'll figure it out tomorrow.

    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.
