    *** Saturday update: So far the winds appear to be light, the ride is a go! ***
    It looks like we will have a 15 MPH west wind around 10 AM, so we may have a tailwind along Route 24...
    See you at the start.

    *** Don't worry about the wind - we will ride together and share the load. ***

    Join me for a structured non-stop ride around the Manorville and Calverton area, leaving from the Manorville King Kullen. Last weekend's episode found our group of researchers diverted from their work in the Pine Barrens due to a "police investigation." What will this episode's ride hold in store for us? Planned high points of the ride will include Mill Road, the Area 51 Hill and the climb past the Shrine.

    And what of 103.9 MHz? Is it the frequency of an innocent radio station beaming classic rock over the FM radio airwaves or is it perhaps the frequency of a radio device being used by aliens in Manorville for mind control experiments? For the more adventurous riders of the group, I will offer the option of climbing the Col de RCN hill, so that they can view the radio antenna and draw their own conclusions.

    [And readers bear with me - it's not easy to come up with this stuff].

    In the case of weather issues, I will post a ride status message the morning of the ride.
