Let's take a lap around the lake this week. This is not a race, all skill levels are welcome, nobody will be dropped. Helmets are required as always.

Meet at the boat ramp on Wood St. (Rt 135) next to Dale Rd.

Cool. It looks like I'm not going to Philly this week so I should be able to attend this ride! Plus, it is supposed to cool down tomorrow (finally!).

This is a fun place. It has a split personality. The east side is more tech and the west side rolling and flowy. Plus the little bowl drop at the end is fun.

Anyone have room for the hitch hiker?

Hey, just a warning, (tho you guys probably know better than me,) I caught a WICKED case of poison ivy there last month. I've since heard there's always alot there. :fat:

I wouldn't let that deter you from attending the ride. There is poison ivy almost everywhere. Stay away from it if you are allergic or use Ivy Block.

Lights? I'm guessing no for one loop starting at 6.

Hey thanks Woodsguy, I have to admit I was feeling like I'd never want to go there again, which doesn't make sense. Does the Ivy block go on before or after the sunscreen and bug spray ; )
