I'll be doing a 200k out of Italy. Y'all have fun. Love that wind...

For those skeered of being able to keep up on the 24 miler, there will be the usual "John's Bicycles" group ride rolling out at the same time, which is a more casual pace, for about 18 miles...
 
Greg, if there are plenty doing the 24, I could also switch to the 40 once we get to Ferris...  and Jay was also interested in the 40...
 
The GDB gang is also riding out from the town square at the same time, to do the full 42 and 62 mile routes.  So, there are all KINDS of choices for Lancaster group riding on Saturday!!!  C'mon down!!!!

Shellbear  that's pretty much exactly Alexis' average, so there won't be a choice in the matter.  But unless there are several people doing the 40 from the Rbent group, there's just no use driving all the way over there.  We can ride by ourselves any day of the week.

Well, last call - who's doing the 40 besides my wife and I?

Jay also indicated doing the 40, at Barbecs yesterday.  I can also, assuming another 24mile leader can step up.  Again, we're all riding together down to Ferris, then splitting there.
 
There are at least two eatery options right there next to John's shop, for after the ride.  However, I imagine that it'll take at least another hour and a half longer before the 40-mile group gets back, so there's not really much socialization opportunity afterwards for the whole group...

I plan on doing the 40 and I have the track in my GPS so I wont get lost when I ride too slow.

I won't be able to make it to Lancaster after all. I'm going to spend the day with my little girl who is home from school. Y'all have a great day!

I'll have 5 copies of the maps and cue sheets for both routes.  Note that the 42-miler is detouring at Palmer, NOT going past the hilly section with the Wild Animal Farm...  You're turning right on 813W, just after Palmer.
