About this event
Spring has sprung and one of the most beautiful sights of the season is seeing all the cherry trees in blossom. The good news is that your don't have to go to Washington DC ...we are blessed to have a lot of them right here in our home town. One of the premier places to see these pink beauties is at Spring Meadows Park, near Boiling Springs, so that's our destination for Wednesday. https://www.visitcumberlandvalley.com/listing/spring-meadows-park/2152/
Unfortunately, temperatures on Wednesday will not be as warm as today's, so I'm switching the routine around a bit, so we can ride when it's predicted to be warmer and sunnier. That means we'll have lunch first and ride later.
Lunch time: 11:30 a.m. Ride time: 12:30 p.m.
Lunch and departure place: DaVinci's Italian Eatery, 6617 Carlisle Pike. Park in the lot on the north side of the restaurant, across Route 11. Do not park in the lot in front of the restaurant.
Route: 29 miles of gentle terrain. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/50149750 There will be a rest stop in Spring Meadows Park, at about the half-way point.
Pace: About 12 mph, unless someone offers to lead a group of faster riders.
Leader: Marilyn Chastek mchastek2009@gmail.com
I'll cancel by 11:00 a.m. if necessary. It seems that the spring weather has been quite unpredictable lately.
