Join me on Saturday!

Meet in Shepherdstown, ride on the C&O towpath (packed gravel and flat) to Harpers Ferry and back. Optional lunch in Shepherdstown (Blue Moon Cafe?) after for anyone interested.

Shepherdstown parking: Lock 38 parking area (This larger lot is 0.2 miles past the small Ferry Hill parking lot. The parking area is actually across the Potomac Bridge in Maryland.)

Pace will be casual, 10-12 mph. Feel free to go longer or faster if you choose, but I will stay with the group as needed. Arrive a few minutes early so we can start our ride at 10 AM. Look here for any changes in case of weather. As of tonight, Saturday will start chilly (maybe 40 degrees) and rise to the mid-50s. Please post here if you plan to attend.

This is the link to the parking Lot I meant.
The first link is the small Ferry Hill parking lot. This second one is just down Canal Rd and holds more cars.

Tomorrow might be a bit windy, but I still plan to ride. I have heard from five people who will be joining. Let me know if you are as well!
