Rides Cancelled for Tonight

Sorry but the shop has cancelled the Ladies Ride because of wet roads AND the Mt Bike Ride for lack of RSVPs.  Hopefully the weather will be better for riding next week.

Tonight's Rides - Cancelled

Sorry everyone, but it is pouring in EL and even if it passes the roads will be too wet for safe riding.  Hope to see the Ladies on Wednesday, Mt Bikers when you ride and everyone on Monday next.
