Daylight gets shorter; OWLS ride longer

This month Tom Reynolds has been organizing the OWLS rides. He's taken a hint from Jim Schroeder and planned long and short routes, e.g., tonight's Limestone Tours of lengths 34 and 25 miles respectively. Check out the links in the Ride Calendar to the maps he's been creating.

Tonight we had our usual 20 or so riders, with half or more doing the long option. Daylight is sufficiently short that the long option requires holding stops to an absolute minimum. Hope they don't have any flat tires or other delays! Tonight we were also overtaken around the split between the long and short options by the training group coming from Bryan Park.

We also had a special treat as club web master and photographer Klaus Rothe showed up to take pictures before we started.

Then he went out on the route by car in order to set up a few more shots.
