Leader: Joan Oppel
Members: Ron Altemus, Steve Palincsar, Harold Datz and Rita Zeidner
Route: We headed down Bumpy Oak and Rose Hill, over to Chapel Hill and took Locust Grove to cross 301. Springhill Newton and Glen Albin brought us into La Plata and the Dash In, then Quailwood and Hawthorne to Marshall Corner. We took the Indian Head trail from Pomfret all the way back to Hawthorne for the quiet and then Lower Wharf and Chapman's Landing. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/26630265
Weather: Bright sun, low wind, 45 degrees in the Bryans Road parking lot but felt chillier, ending at 55. Once we started riding, the bright sun made for a quick warm up.
Mechanicals/Mishaps: none
Report: Monday turned out to be a great day for a ride. Some of us shed layers over the course of the route as the sun warmed everything. The route worked out well, a little climbing, a little descending, mostly quiet roads with a few busy ones. Our group was very social today with lots of chatting. Tomorrow has significant winds so this was an ideal choice for early in this week.
