Saturday, we will ride into Minneapolis and St. Paul, following the 47-mile Marshall Avenue route, which we rode last fall. We'll start at 08:00 and follow the route clockwise. As always, you may join us along the route in Eagan or elsewhere. We'll make a pit stop at the gas station at Wabasha and Plato and return home with a nice tail wind.

This week, we will be riding the Cannon Falls route clockwise. We will leave Starbucks at 08:00, which will be our normal summertime start time. In Cannon Falls, we'll stop at Hi-Quality Bakery for some pastries and a pit stop. The 56-mile route should take us three hours to complete.

It looks like it will be a great day for a ride again Saturday. This week's ride will leave Starbucks at 09:00 and follow the Northfield route clockwise for 56 miles. We usually stop at Blue Monday, in downtown Northfield, for a pastry and coffee. If you need a shorter route, you can take one of a couple shortcuts, like staying on CR 66 west to Farmington, rather than turning south at CR 79 (Blaine Avenue). Another shortcut would be to turn west at CR 86 (280th St). I'm giving you a couple of options here, because I won't be able to lead the ride. Someone familiar with the route will have to step up an lead the group.

It has been three weeks since our last outdoor ride, and I bet you're as frustrated as I am about this spring weather. To try to make up for lost time, I'm planning to do two rides this weekend. Neither ride will be fast or furious, until the end, because most of us have spring legs and we need to keep everyone together and having fun. There's both a morning and an afternoon ride, so hopefully you can make it to one or both of them.

As you know, several inches of snow were supposed to arrive tonight, but now they are saying we'll be spared more snow this weekend. Saturday looks to be a bit cool and it's supposed to be in the forties Sunday, so let's do an afternoon ride Sunday. That way you can ride indoors Saturday morning and be ready for another ride Sunday.

It looks like Saturday is going to provide us a nice Spring day, so we can do a little riding. We'll meet at Starbucks for the ride at 1:00 PM and follow the Orchard Lake route counter-clockwise for 35 or 45 miles. The wind is predicted to switch during the ride, so we may get a light tail wind for both the beginning and end of the ride.
