Dear AdventuRiders,
You may have noticed the strange capitalization of Wednesday's ride location. Well, its supposed to be 92 degrees, so we will do a ride starting at Forge Pond with numerous opportunities to jump into various water bodies to cool off. Hence, we will put the WET in WEsTford. In addition to Forge Pond we will stop at pristine Burgess Pond, Nabnassett Pond, and perhaps Salmon Brook and Knopps Pond.
