Spoke to the guy putting it together. I know him from C&L Cycle. So it's legit. He will have a signup table at the restaurant.

Trip review

Very easy course to ride. Great for beginners. No hard sections to ride throughand very scenic. Mostly gravel roads no single tracks. Fuel stops were spaced great. Refuel bike's and get a drink and a snack. We came from baltimore so we parked our trailer near Thurmont rode streets to restaurant then after end of ride in Mountaindale MD road streets back to trailer. There were 3 in our group, one flat tire and a home owner helped us inflate the tire with his air compressor. You have to be careful on some sections becuase of 2 way traffic. Total miles for us around 160 miles.

We will do this one again, lord willing and the creek don't rise. :cheers:
