I will be doing this ride, and was wondering if anyone else here will be. This is my first charity ride in over 15 years (starting riding again last year after 14 years of inactivity), so I am looking forward to it, rain (which seems likely) or shine.

Looks like just cloudy weather around 8-11am... In only it's 2nd year we'll see how the turn out is... I'd expect 50-100 at most. Should be a nice ride

The ride wasn't too bad, other than a few quick turns that were easy to miss if you weren't paying attention (like that one downhill... man I almost blew right past that one).
I think the previous night's promise of rain may have scared off a few people as the turn out wasn't all that spectacular. Still got a nice ride in... although I don't think I ever want to be that close to a nuclear powerplant again

Being that close to the powerplant was not that bad, it was the crackling of the high voltage lines overhead around the powerplant that was disconcerting.
Had a nice ride though. Very nice area to ride through.
