February 5 Saturday

CC (F) * 25 * 10:00 (?) AM * Veirs Mill Park RC (VMP) * 50%
Flat and Cold. If the temperature is below 40 degrees at the ride start time, then the ride leader will show up at 1:00 pm for the ride. You might also want to monitor PPTC Listserv, since I may try to send a note if the ride might be go at 1:00 pm or be canceled due to weather. This is a simple ride that should not challenge too many people. It is basically a ride down to Pierce Mill and back. Except for a short distance from the Mormon Temple to East-West Highway, the entire ride will be on Beach Drive (except for an optional hill after leaving Pierce Mill, for those that cannot get enough of that kind of thing). Possible lunch after the ride at a restaurant nearby.

Poolesville Winter Loop. A nice and scenic ride around Poolesville. We'll avoid most of the steeper hills as well as MD 28. No go in rain, sleet and snow or on icy roads.
