Subject: [CR]Vintage Bicycle Ride - DC area - Saturday, September 15
This ride is planned for Saturday, 15 September. My 5th annual DC area Autumnal Vintage bike ride.
The theme this year is British. If you do not have a British bike, most anything with 1, 2, or 3 wheels made out of steel will be acceptable....
In celebration of the fact that all of the Maryland portion of Beach Drive been repaved recently, the route will use that along with a portion in DC. The route is very fixed-gear friendly. I will be riding fixed gear of course. There will be one or two moderate hills to give us a chance to get off the saddle.
Non-riders, spouses, etc, welcome, of course. (My spousal unit will not be riding) We will assemble circa 10 am with an aim to begin riding at about 10:30. Earlier arrival is most acceptable. Food, beverages served afterwards.
Please let me know if you plan to attend so I can be sure to have sufficient food, etc available. If you prefer vegetarian fare, please advise. At a minimum, we will serve Pizza and Brats. Along with beer and soda. Food and/or beverage donations most welcome.
I will send directions when you let me know you plan to attend. But we are located just north of DC, close to the Connecticut Avenue exit off the beltway, I-495.
