Dear AdventuRiders,
YAY, I got out of kid chauffeur duty on Friday. Now we can do a pre-season ride. I haven't had time to decide what to do, so stay tuned.
Also, on the way back from Bar Harbor I drove across the newly opened Portsmouth Memorial Bridge and it was so cool I did a U-turn and drove back across it. The weather for next Wednesday looks nice (at this point), so that may be our first Fearless Leader's Choice Ride of the season.

Dear AdventuRiders,
Join us starting next week as we finish up our 10TH YEAR of fun, fitness, and good company!
I'm back from Bar Harbor, and I was hoping to do some pre-season rides, but getting various kids settled at various schools has been very time consuming. I also "accidentally" bought a house in Bar Harbor, and that has occupied the rest of my time.
Anyhow, we will start next Wednesday, September 4th with a Fearless Leader's Choice Ride followed on Friday, September 6th with a Fitness Ride. Beginner and Recreation Rides will start on Monday, September 9th. Stay tuned for more details.
Hope to see you there,
Bill and Carole
