Pre Weekend Ride Update

I'm getting this out way too late, just got busy around here earlier.  First, Rick Miller has a spot or two open for the van ride from New Albany to Sugar Grove, providing SAG service to Marietta and then a drive back to New Albany, for $120 which includes the fee in to OFC.  I hear Farmer Mile, Gus & Peggy and a couple others are already in but as I said, a spot or two still open.  You can email Rick at  [email protected] for more info, even this late.

Kevin Hollingshead, organizer of KFC, a ride from Circleville to Galipolis and back over two days sent me the below.  There is no fee for this ride and it appears Kevin, Steve O, Mark C, Andrew, Flyin Tuna, Jeff S, John Day and Brent are doing Saturday with the Rossi tandem heading part way down on Sunday to hook up with the oncoming group.  Kevin says all are welcome and:

I have updated the GPS files and Jeff and I marked the route down to Jackson but ran out of time (bigger undertaking than I thought it was going to be), however, the cue sheets attached are valid and if you have a GPS you can upload the files from the attached links.
  
I feel very comfortable with the route and was worried about some of the route between Chillicothe and Jackson and Jeff and I were able to iron that out today. With the forecast for weather you will love the route, for those looking for a hilly challenge the second day has more climbing and bigger accents. Nevertheless I don't think anyone coming will be disappointed. 

The only change we have made is the start of the ride, we were not able to confirm with the school to park cars over night, so we will be departing from the Circleville YMCA. We will plan to be on the road at 8:00am both days. I have attached GPS links, Hotel information, YMCA address and cue sheets. If you have any questions you can call my cell at: (740)-601-6494.
