Ten hearty folks embraced the heat for our Wednesday night ride through Accokeek and down to the Potomac River at Marshall Hall. At the start of the ride, my thermometer at home - just a short ride form the firehouse - was 94F in the shade. At the end of the ride it had cooled to 89F. Joining me on the ride were Darryl Lowery, new club member Gary Swartz, Larry Perkins, Jane Hudnall, Jim Hudnall, Richard Harrington, Calvin Conyers, Sam Perry and Kirsten Watts. No mishaps or broken seat rails to report.
