Croquette Ride
The planned 62 km route is: https://www.strava.com/routes/2300235 which can be trimmed for those looking for shorter efforts. The start is located at:
Falmouth Elementary School
1000 Forbes St
Falmouth, VA 22405
The social event takes place at the end of the ride, at approximately 1700, just around the corner at 204 Mount Pleasant Boulevard where we will be able to play Croquette, Petanque or Boules (French version of Bocce), and Horseshoes in my big back yard while sipping cold drinks and nibbling good food.
Request that everyone please bring a healthy dish and drinks to share, homemade or purchased. Also seats... as I have a very limited supply.
I will provide a variety of grilled sausages from Fredericksburg's Old Town Butcher, French bread, cheese, and wine, and ice.
Spouses are invited to join us for the social time.
