Hi group,

Due to an error in my e-mail program at work, I responded individually
to several messages today that I wanted to have redirected to the
group. So here goes:

This is always a great ride. I highly recommend it. I hope to make it
as well.

The daffys are just coming out now, so hopefully they will be still
going strong in two weeks.

Yes, I noticed this as well, but have not had time to contact Sam. The
ride will start at 10am. The 9 am is a typo.

Yes, most people who don't ride with clubs tend to ride on roads they
drive on, which is generally a mistake. Since the club has a
collective
memory of different road, ride leaders will often go on roads they have
ridden on before and venture out on some new ones. That is the whole
point of club rides.

In general in Westchester and north, stay off the the main highways and
you will be rewarded with some great riding.

See everyone on Sunday at 10am.
