Dear AdventuRiders,
Okay, I officially give up trying to forecast the weather! I actually took Meteorology 101 in college many years ago and I consult multiple sources of weather information, but my predictions have been disappointing so far this season.
Anyhow, I am recycling the Monday Groton rides for this Friday. The morning forecast doesn't look so good, so I am leaving one of my favorite rides for the afternoon. Its a bit long for a Recreation ride, but well worth the effort.
