I am the substitute ride leader for Bob Ravera Bob and I emailed back and forth and wish him luck with his busy schedule helping his mom

The SKI TOUR (58 mi) route with GPS and cue/map is found on club website or here:

I had planned to do the ride but an alternate route to celebrate FARM N FEST DAY that can be seen online at:

www OnFarmFest com

If riders are interested in stopping at Lucky 13 Red Angus and Brentwood Alpacas and Yaks Farms for tours, demos and activities this would be the time There are a list of other farms participating on the website

With the ALTERNATE route the Truxton area (Rt91) and Rt13 would be omitted as I have marked up in the attached

The Ski Tour with Farm Tours is about 49 miles compared to the Ski Tour that is 58 miles IF one is looking to make it 69 miles you can backtrack from the farms and continue on Ski Tour Route to Rt 91 and Rt 13 Not Me! More mileage (like add another 20+ ) would be from Pompey Center to another farm as part of the tour; Navarino Orchard on RT20 where tomato picking is 50 lb and apples $1 00 lb Where you would put them on your bike could be a dilemma!

BTW the Farm Tours (7) are from 10 am to 3 pm At 5:30 pm last stop is Greenwood Winery in E Syracuse for tasting, food and music

We will be rolling out of Nottingham Plaza Top's parking lot 10 am I printed out a few cues and maps like the one attached Weather is to be cool 56 degrees at 10 am and high is in low 60's with SUN, perfect riding and climbing conditions as this is a rolling to hilly course and the alternate route has about same elevation If there is someone riding long and thinks will be returning later perhaps you can take the sign in sheet just let me know See you there Mary 315-254-6007

PS since I was soooo busy mapping I am unable to make brownies or chili or pick apples to bring for the after ride but I will probably still take pics! ( yes Jack S you will be wondering where I am! )
