Sat 07:00 125 20 Tom Fissel 870-5322 Pleasant Union School The annual Double Dam Ride. Start time due to park not opening until 8:00. The route will be either Bike Rte 1 to Virginia ,or alternate to Lake Gaston -depending on lake water levels. Regardless of route, Double Dam rules apply, no anaerobic thresholds, no sprints, just a good group effort to get everybody to the 100 mile point in the anticipated pace. The last 30 miles will be at rider's discretion - bust you butt fast if you so choose.

NOTE the special start time (7am) and location (Pleasant Union Elementary).

847-8437 Smith's House Tandem Rally with Cook-out afterwards from Smith and Claude's house.
For the cookout bring something to grill and something to share.  We will have some salads and we will fire the grill once we finish the ride.  This would also give us an opportunity to plan the following rides for the year.
