A couple more pieces of info:

- You must register for the ride to get a sandwich! We will be ordering ahead for sandwiches and we would love to include you.  Please let us know you are coming so we have enough for everybody. Thanks!

- the specs call for 13 and 15 MPH averages; but we will play the pace by ear; this is a tour, not a race, and no one will be dropped

 - there is a nice halfway house for a food stop, but bringing along two bottles, energy bars, GU, etc recommended

- The White Horse Country Pub in Marbledale as a lunch spot on the way home for those who have time to do so.
