About this event
RWGPS Route Links
The Routes Well, the spring lilacs are all gone, and the corn is in the fields! Thus, we're going to see what the lilacs routes look like in late August. This ride will take us into the farm country around Yarker and Camden East, and then over to the Holleford meteorite crater (Wikipedia article).
Car Pooling Please consider!
Tailgate Refreshments There is no restaurant at the finish this week. Thus, we suggest that you 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.
