The regular HBC Sunday ride, previously scheduled for 8:00 from Westhaven, is CANCELLED. The radar shows a large patch of rain headed our way for this morning. Thanks to Russ Welty, Ride Leader, for an early call!
But conditions look perfect for Dan's ride to the north tomorrow! We have pre-ridden the course, and lots of fine riding is waiting for you on Dividing Ridge!
RIDE CANCELLED DUE TO RAIN - Sunday, Sept. 5 - 8:00 A.M.

The standard Sunday route is 30 miles. Russ Welty will lead this week's ride and make sure all riders have safely returned. Most members will add miles along the route, and at the start we will establish the approximate distance that various small groups intend to ride. The standard route goes out Boyd Mill, up Parker Branch, along Hargrove to Pinewood and Bending Chestnut, and back by Garrison, Bailey, and Alpakistan to the old Pancake route. Many riders will do a 50- or 60-mile ride, improvising the route as they go along. Here is the cue sheet for the standard 30-mile route:
