Gold Ride Correction
by Cameron Young 07 Nov '13

07 Nov '13

Several sources have reported that the faucet at the first stinger is turned off again, so Peter Strauss will be the only water stop. Be sure to carry enough water for the rest of the route which shouldn't be much more than a couple of hours. It's not supposed to be hot this weekend, so that should help. See you Saturday! Cam
