Hi-

This promises to be a great week for cycling.  The weather will warm up from the high 50s on Monday to the mid 70s by Friday.  Currently, there is 0% chance of rain!

On Monday morning, we will ride to the Assabet River Wildlife Refuge.  In the afternoon, we will ride around Delaney Wildlife area in Stow.  If you plan to eat with us (highly recommended) please let me know by 9AM Monday morning. If we have 7 or more, I can make a reservation at the Rail Trail Flatbread Company.

Wednesday we will do one of my favorite rides, with sweeping views, gorgeous farmland and of course, cute little animals.  Try the Greek lemon soup at lunch.
