Reminder - Elm Street Playground, Acton on Friday

Dear AdventuRiders,

The morning FITNESS Ride will visit the Acton Arboretum which should have a bunch of flowers. We will then go and ride a bit of the unpaved Assebet River Rail Trail.

Lunch will be from Idylwilde Farm, hopefully at the outside picnic tables.

The afternoon RECREATION ride will visit the llamas before riding around Long Pond. We will take the "easy" way up Nagog Hill before a fast ride down and back to Elm Street Playground.

The weather is looking worse than it was this morning with a 30% chance of rain tomorrow afternoon but at least it will be warm. As usual, I will make the STOP / GO call before 8:00 tomorrow morning.
