Description: This ride will be the first of several all-membership rides in 2024 designed to get everyone to the same starting location but offering rides for every speed and distance including a NO DROP ride. We will have multiple routes and ride leaders to lead you around the quiet roads of Spotsylvania and Caroline Counties. Afterwards, enjoy a hot lunch and drinks at Bethel Baptist Church on Paige Rd.
Please bring a dish to share and a lawn chair. Food will be laid out buffet style inside the church with drinks and some snacks outside. Some tables will be available, but please ensure you bring a chair to eat under the spreading oak tree in the church yard.
Note: There will not be any manned rest stops on this ride. Stores and churches with water will be noted on the RWGPS routes.
Start Time: 9:00am. Arrive at least 20 minutes early! Rest rooms available at the start.
Location: Bethel Baptist Church, 14036 South River Rd, Woodford, VA 22580 (the club's usual rest stop church on the Hopewell and YMCA routes).
Note: Parking will be in front of the church, along the private road adjacent to the church and in the large lot across the street.
