Wednesday Lunch Rides Resume

Wednesday lunch ride ‘season’ begins this Wednesday, 23 September. Rides will be some 20-25 miles at a C-pace. Rides will be announced weekly via e-mail to interested parties. If you wish to be on the mailing list email me at paul.ericson@gmail.com.

RIDE RESUMPTION

We plan to resume our regular schedule of Wednesday and Sunday club rides once Frederick County enters phase three of the State’s Covid-19 reopening plan.  We will send out a group email announcing the restart date at that time.  Of note, neither Potomac Pedalers nor the Baltimore Bicycle Club are holding group rides at this time.  Thanks for your patience in this matter.  It will be nice when we will be able to renew acquaintances.
