End of 2014 season …
It looks like we have finally reached freezing overnight temperatures and the 2014 cycling season might be over … If occasional Sundays are sunny and warm enough to ride, by all means, come to the Bean Scene at 10am on Sunday and see who else shows up! It might be warm enough for a short outing ….
Our Wednesday rides ceased a while ago when it got too dark too early to make it worthwhile.
See you all in 2015, or on the cross country ski trails!
If you can’t make it to the mall today …
