Well ... I didn't make this morning. Out too late last night, coupled with a

Ahh, you took a different route on the way back.

We did the 91st Street route on the return with Warren.

Still, I am impressed by your 18.1 avg great work!

Who's in for the Melon Metric? That would be a great venue for the

OPC15 group to have some fun riding as a team. I'm registering today.



Dave Dallam

  

  

I want to do this ride, but given the vagaries of the weather, don't make it a practice to register in advance.  Mike Schnell wants to go as well.  Wasn't Paul Forsythe thinking about it as well?

   Who's in for the Melon Metric? That would be a great venue for the  
OPC15 group to have some fun riding as a team. I'm registering today.

I plan on going as well.  While there's a 100 mile option, the people I've talked to so far seem more interested in the 62.
