A beautiful day for the first ride. We had the largest group I've seen in my 7 years of involvement with CRC. counting Steve we had 16 riders. It was a little convoluted. The group started out and stopped at the river front park. I started last and delt with a bike issue with one of our riders. I got to the park at least 5 minutes after the group. We waited a few more minutes for Steve before heading north. The trail was extremely crowded and we got split into two groups. The lead group decided to go on toward Van Voorhis before the larger second group got there. The rest of us turned at the end of the pavement and rode south south to the Gazebo. We turned and rode back to Wendy's. Riders Connie Ervin, Marilyn Newcome, Susan Pinto, Michael Wright, Joe Leroy, David Kuneff, Frank Gmeindl, Jake McCarthy, Lucy Thompson, Chris Linton, Jim Lester, Lisa Acchione, Mark Crabtree, Steve and Myself.
