    Details (RL read field instructions carefully): 

    We'll head out to Briermere Farms via Mill Road, and the northern roads through the fields leading to Briermere. We'll have a short stop at Briermere, so we can return home before any potential rainstorms.

    The return takes us through Area 51, for an attack on the Col des Aliens. (A regroup at the top of the hill, will be expected...). Beware of aliens on carbon fiber bikes!
