Dear AdventuRider,
This is the last official week of AdventuRides. Thank you to everyone who filled out (an anonymous) survey. I will consider the feedback carefully. If you are interested in riding informally during the summer, let me know. Wednesday looks iffy, but we have been incredibly luck with weather this spring and things could change.
There was no party date that worked for everyone, but this Friday was the best. We will hold a potluck celebration after our morning bike ride Not only are our riders fun, intelligent and charming, many are also excellent cooks! Once an AdventuRider, always an AdventuRider. Past and current riders are welcome. Please let us know what you are bringing here. Every category does not need an entry and some categories can have multiple entries. We just don't want all desserts and no main course… or do we?
