Salmon Creek - Brush Prairie

Please note that the start time continues at the usual 10 AM. Please check the Buddie's List for e-mails on this ride. With nasty weather, we may delay the start until Noon, and I will send an e-mail by the Thursday, prior to the ride, to let everyone know. If you are not on the Buddie's List, this may be a good reason to join.
 
Typically there are three groups on the road, 12 – 14 mph thru 18 – 20 mph.  No one left behind. We will ride with no or a little dripping, but we will not get soaked in the first mile, and then attempt to ride twenty more miles....

 Hope you will join us for a fun ride!
