Fall Tour Warm Up Ride #3. Leader: Bill Baughman
Saturday, September 9 - 8:00 a.m. Warrington Township Bldg. 3346 Rosstown Road, Wellsville, PA
Route approximately 65 miles.
The third and final Fall Tour warm-up ride will be held on Saturday, September 9 at 8:00 A.M. The route is about 65 miles, with 2350 feet of climbing, so plan to get back between 3 and 4 o'clock. The start point is the Warrington Township Municipal Building in Rossville, PA. From the West Shore, take 15 South to Dillsburg, then 74 South toward York. Go straight across the intersection at the Rossville traffic light and the Municipal Building will be on your left. From the East Shore, take I-83 South to Wyndamere Road, then 177 toward Lewisberry. Continue through Lewisberry, past Gifford Pinchot State Park. The Municipal Building will be on your right just past the Pinchot Park kayak launch and the Lutheran Church. ridewithgps.com/routes/43999380
A revised cue sheet will be provided at the ride start. We will not be going downtown for lunch because of heavy traffic. Instead, we will stop at the Hunterstown Diner at mile 40. If you prefer, please feel free to bring your lunch on your bike. We recommend riding with your six-pack (if you have one). We will probably ride in small groups. If you already belong to a six-pack, we recommend keeping the six-pack together for this ride. If you don't already belong to a six-pack, hook up with one to get acquainted. Make sure you have two water bottles, tools for on the road, and at least one spare tube for your bike. Water stops are scarce on this ride, particularly after lunch. Rain gear might also come in handy. Here's a great opportunity to see what you need to carry and how you plan to carry it on the bike. Remember, the luggage van is not a sag wagon on the Fall Tour. It will transport your ride-down luggage to the next destination each morning, but there will not be any on-the-road services. Plan to be self-sufficient.
