Hi Everyone,

Notes for the upcoming rides and season changes.

Wednesday night Goshen Gravel Gang has started. This may move to Thursdays so keep an eye out for rides on Ride Alert. Also, Wes Wright Todd Romanow normally coordinate these rides. I have posted some now due to the mild temps we are experiencing now.
