The Routes
 We'll start in Verona this week, and head out into the lovely rural countryside to the west. The A, B and C routes will make there way over to Tamworth, and stop in at the always friendly Quartermaster's Store & Quirky Café. The D route will ride a scenic loop around Verona.
 

Car Pooling Please consider!

Post Ride Refreshments There is no restaurant at the finish this week. Thus, stuff your tailgate party chair into the car, along with some post ride refreshments (a thermos of hot coffee, a beer cooler, some sandwiches?), and hang around and chat for a bit before heading back into town.
