This ride will go out of the Old Trolly Line Park, 475 Beverly Road, Elizabethtown at 9:30. We go by this park on the Hershey C+ rides several times a year. The weather forecast is for no rain, sunshine, and a high that day of 68. The ride time temperatures forecast to run from 46F to 60F.<br /><br />What is in store, 35 miles, a couple of easy climbs and riding in NW Lancaster Country and SW Lebanon County in the Elizabethtown Area and through Colebrook. Hills - Koser up to the the road to Colebrook, the hilly Patrick Road, and Colebrook/Mount Wilson Road. 2,250&#39; vertical is shown on the route, although the recorded ride is always more than the planned one in RWGPS.<br /><br />The route - https://ridewithgps.com/routes/41260835<br /><br />Why is this the Pumpkin Ride? Afterwards, you can join the another cycling group known as the email riders, for a tailgate with all things Pumpkin. This often means dishes like Pumpkin Chilly, Pumpkin Mac n&#39;Cheese, Pumpkin Soups, Pumpkin Beers (many kinds) and then the traditional pumpkin items, like cake, pies and cookies. The only catch here is to bring something pumpkin to eat or drink to participate in the tailgate. <br /><br />Note that the email riders have hikes, and trail rides and one or two of them might join us. The pace for the road ride will be a standard club C+.
