  The Friday morning coffee ride is a one hour-ish, easy paced 12-16mph no drop ride. The route meanders around Town with no climbing. This ride is intended to be an inclusive casual/social ride, with optional coffee to follow. What a great way to stretch out your tired legs or loosen them up before your weekend ride. The coffee ride is just what you have been looking for to start your Fridays!

  
  

  This is a fair weather ride, so the ride will be cancelled due to Wet roads (road spray) or rain. Coffee will still be optional.

  Thursday Evening Ride
  

  Pace: AB

  Location: 

                 Andrews Chapel UMC

                1732 Brooke Rd Stafford, VA

  Please park near the gazebo and not near the main building.
  

  There are no restroom facilities available at the church. There are restrooms available at Aquia Landing Park.

  This is a faster paced ride due to the relatively flat route.  There is a section of "rollers" and one hill on the route that can be challenging, but fun.  The route is well marked and several of the legs are in neighborhoods or back roads and very safe.  Riders of all abilities are welcome, but the average pace for this ride is 16 - 20 mph.
  

  Distances:  11, 17, 20 and 25.  The 11 mile route is relatively flat and the 17, 20 and 25 mile routes will be more challenging.

  Hopewell Church Ride
  

  Location:  12018 Guinea Dr, Woodford, VA 22580

  Come out and ride with us from Hopewell Methodist Church in Woodford, Va. Situated in a rural area just over the Spotsylvania County line, Hopewell allows us to branch out in multiple directions on safe, scenic, country roads.  April through November, we  break into multiple groups based on rider speed and distances. Slower groups generally go 20 to 36 miles at a 14-15mph pace, while faster riders opt for longer distances of at least 40 miles at a 16-18 mph pace. 

  During the normal riding season, Saturday rides feature the official No-Drop ride; however, all groups keep an eye out for newer riders and try to wait at intersections for anyone who is close behind.  Look forward to riding with you!

  Group:  ABC

  RWGPS Routes:  https://ridewithgps.com/events/123890-hm-hopewell-methodist-church

  Ride is NO GO if Weather Channel predicted temperature is 40F and below at ride start time or rain is forecast at 15% or higher.

  Thursday Variety Pack (Caroline)

  This is the Thursday Variety Pack Caroline ride from the Caroline County Community Center AKA old Union High School.

  There are restrooms inside the Community Center.  They are generally open before 9am, but if not go to the Health center on the south side of the building.  They are open at 8am and have been very good to us. 

  This is a familiar route to the east.  Goes to Essex County before returning on Dodge City (AKA Mickey's) road.  Route is 42 miles with an optional shortcut of 30 miles.  Very quiet roads.  No stores, but two churches with water on the 42 and one on the 30.

  Use caution when crossing the short bridge on Dodge City Road.

  Come Bike the Erie Canal Towpath With Me!

  I (Joe Shunk) am planning to ride the Erie Canal Trail June 13-19 and willing to lead the ride. The ride will primarily be on the tow path, but there are a few sections that require riding on the road.  Also, we will be navigating to/from hotels, state parks, through towns, for lunch, dinner or some sightseeing. ...bring your lights and mirrors. 

  Most of the towpath is a hard pack gravel surface.  However, there are some parts of the towpath which are very much like the C&O canal path....similar to a two-lane country road that can be soft and muddy...depending upon the weather.  I am running a 42 cm tire set on my touring bike. 

  Some towns have more than one hotel, but in the interest of keeping this short I only listed one.

  June can be cool in NY, so make sure to bring rain gear and warm clothes.  

  I tried to keep the mileage fun,...errr...ummm..except the last day.... with time to stop for lunch or checking out the sights each day.  There are a lot of interesting exhibits along and nearby the canal path.

  ...goes without saying, but I'll say it.  Your bike needs to be in good condition. You will need the basic repair items and know how to use them.  There are some bike shops, but I have not checked their locations or hours of operations.  You should be familiar with setup of your tent and use of your sleep system.  

  Note**

  If there are more than two others interested in attending I can check with the shuttle service, but I need to know immediately...their calendar is filling up.  In this case, the reservation of their big van will require a non-refundable deposit.   

  Below is the plan:

  June 12- Drive to the Hampton Inn and Suites, Albany, NY Airport

  45 British American Blvd

  Latham, NY

  518-782-7500

  There is a $25 charge to leave your vehicle at the hotel.

  June 13- Pick-up by APoint Shuttle Service at 8am.

  Cost - $700 for two people, $50 additional for a third person.

  I did look into renting a vehicle ...minivan at Albany Airport, but the logistics would be challenging...not to mention gas for a fully loaded minivan, Thruway toll, Uber picking up/dropping off rental, etc.

  Arrive Buffalo 1pm...ish.

  Ride 32 miles to Lockport, NY  (mm32)

  Hotel - Lockport Inn & Suites

  June 14- Ride 42 miles to Brockport, NY (mm75)

  Hotel - Hampton Inn Brockport 

  June 15- Ride 41 miles to Macedon, NY (mm114)

  Tenting - Twilight on the Erie RV Resort

  Showers, bathrooms and restaurant,...but plan to stop and pick up something before.

  June 16- Ride 64 miles to Camillus, NY (mm178)

  Tru by Hilton Syracuse - Camillus

  June 17- Ride 42 miles to Sylvan Beach State Park, NY (mm220)

  Tenting, showers, bathrooms,...restaurant, ...but plan to stop and pick up something beforehand.

  June 18- Ride 52 miles to Little Falls Canal Harbor and Rotary Park, NY (mm 272)

  Tenting...pick up food prior.

  June 19- Ride 70 miles to Hampton Inn...stay, and drive home next day.
