Hello everyone,
First of all, I am hoping that someone(s) that is planning to come to the ride can volunteer for some sign placement and straggler wrangling. Peterson Park is deep within North Park Village, so people may be a little lost on this one.
Definitely one of those things that should have been better thought of in the beginning. I was originally planning to meet at the northwest corner of the park, but so many people drive in on some of the tours and there is almost no parking on Central Park or Peterson over there. Thus, we have the whole of North Village for drivers to park in if they need it.
Also, we definitely will be riding in any weather, aside from lightning, which I do not mess with, and particularly with a group ride, but predictions are for a rainy Saturday, not that they know anything, so dress accordingly.
North Park is a beautiful area. There are more trails on this ride than any prior one I have done. Here are some pics from the first of three research rides I did. Back to solo research this month.
Anyone have any ideas for a get together place after the ride? We did it the last few times and it has been fun to hang with folks and tip a few back afterwards. I will probably post this querry on
E2RR2E as well.
Cheers and hope to see a bunch of you out there. It is a fun way to spend your Saturday afternoon.
