    Default Group Ride - Scott County Park - 5:30 - Thursday, Aug 6

    Come out for a group ride on Thursday at Scott County Park @ 5:30. I'll lead a ride for beginners. I'm sure there will be other groups going out too. I'll bring a case of beverages to share!

    Last time Vonda scheduled a group ride it rained for 6 weeks. Coincidence?

    Where do you guys usually meet up? The trail head by the lake? (I know some people park over by the little air strip on the south side, or up in the middle by the pool, or even enter on the north end by Area 51 and the golf course.)

    Good question! We will meet in the parking lot by Pride lake. If you enter the park at the main entrance on the south side of the park, once inside the park, take the first right. Park just past Pride Lake or in the overflow section accross the street from the lake. There are more details at this link: http://www.qcforc.org/content.php?115-Scott-County-Park

    Sounds good. My plan is to be there.

    First time I went to ScoCoPa that is where I started. More recently I usually ride the north end of the park for Cannon and Area 51, but still occasionally zoom around the southern loops for some fast and flowy goodness.

    Heckuva ride last night, guys and gals. Much needed- great company afterwards also.

    Thanks again Vonda for arranging it.

    Thanks for letting me tag along! It was fun!

    Hopefully I didn't make the medium/fast group wait up for me too much! Think I dropped 5lbs in sweat, haha.

    Good times. Look forward to the next.
