It may not look like it outside now, but we will do another outdoor ride Saturday. It will be windy from the northwest Saturday afternoon, so I’ve shortened our normal Bloomington loop a few miles and we’ll do that loop clockwise. The ride will leave Starbucks in Rosemount at 1:00 pm. During the ride, it should be about 47 degrees with mostly sunny skies and WNW winds at 10 to 14 mph.
