Our 1:30pm started off overcast and near 60 degrees., starting from the Brandywine VFD lot. Riders for the day were all club memebers: Pat Walthers, Tom Short, Hugo Molina, Jay Lewis, Jimmy Bartlett and ride leader John Gorman. The created route was a modification from the posted cuesheet library. After the break at Moreland's store it heads down Wilkerson and Celestial Ln, thru Truman Manor and back up Gallant Green and retraces the initial roads off Cedarville back to Brandywine Rd, without crossing over to the hilly areas of Molly Berry, N. Keys, to get back to the start. Riders expressed a vote of approval in elminating many of the standard steep inclines, normally encountered on this original cuesheet posting and made for a more enjoyable experience for CC-B level riders w/ added miles. Hugo came out for a recovery ride from his Sat's 55mi ALP ride w/ Nancy/Richard, Tom grouped w/him, and Jay followed their faster pace. John swept and/or monitored from the front @ times on the route for Pat and Jimmy, we grouped together at times as well. The weather after the 15-mile reststop, became a nice sunny pleasant day. Ride leader had a 13.60 ams.
