Wed. Afternoon Ride
by Sheri Leiken 16 Nov '15

16 Nov '15

Even though daylight is gone way before the day is done, there still is time to get around the lake, and up the hill for a quick spin through Hidden Valley and back. No one is left behind on this loop since it is an up and turn around back.. Trust me on this.. Because it will be about 80 degrees, we can't leave this day behind. Come out, Spin those Mid Week legs, and let's go ride! See you ready to ride at 3:30, (I won't get there until about 3:29!) Please let me know if you are going so I can look for you.
