ever ride on.

Lodging: Hotels to be determined by
number of participants
Comments: Please sign up early (at a
meeting or with an email) so that all hotel arrangements can be
made. This will be a few long riding days, but the roads should
not be too difficult for anyone. However, if you thought that
the orientation ride was too tough for you, then you might want
to think about getting a little more saddle time before signing
up for this ride. The roads are not super hard, but plan on
about 250 to 300 miles a day. There will be lots of stops for
necessary things and to enjoy the wonderful scenery. Call or
email me if you have questions about the ride. Check out the
April newsletter for more information.
