The Event We've been invited to join our friends from Kingston's Hops & Barley cycling group for a friendship ride. We'll start at 11:30, and all head directly along the Godfrey-Westport Rd to Scheuermann Vineyard & Winery for lunch and socializing. There'll be wood fired pizzas, and a variety of beverage options. After lunch, we'll break into a gravel route group and a road route group.
Bonus Members of both our group and the Hops & Barley group are invited to participate in, or watch the grueling “Foley Mountain Cat 1 Climb"! Eddy Lloyd of the Hops & Barley group (also a "famous British social climber”) holds the King of the Mountain record on this climb, and will again be defending his title.
Unlike this photo, there'll be no rain at our lunch!
