Beautiful sunshine on an 8:15 am "early bird catches the asphalt" day. Joining today's ride were members: Ruddy Elly, Joyce & Kenny Statom, Diane Gorman, and Jeannie Ann Swartz, guests: Sara Sackville(?), Doug Gritz, and Mike Johnson, led by ride leader John Gorman. The ride left from the end of the B/A Trail (Boulters Way Rd), immediately travels onto road conditions to Sandy Pt State Park for 7miles (with views of the Bay Bridge). After leaving the park you travel along College Pkwy cossing Ritchie Hwy back to the B/A Trail for 9miles. Once back to the Trail, riders could opt for a short option back for a total of 25miles or continue north to the end and retrace the Trail back to Boulters Way for a 40mile total. Several riders took the short option back, others grouped together to do a longer option, some continued further north to ride on the BWI Loop and back. Rider leader stats: (hybrid bike) 37mis, 2:53 mins, 12.66 ams. No mechanical or rider problems encountered.
