    EDIT 1/13/24 @ 10:09pm ***THE SUNDAY RIDE HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL MONDAY 1/15/24!!!*** 

     

    I’ve been keeping an eye on the weather, and it has gotten worse since I initially set up this ride. Right now (1/13/24 @10:05pm), snow showers are supposed to start at 9 am tomorrow morning 1/14 , which will turn into rain/snow showers.

     

    This is Freezing Saddles, not Wipe-Out-In-Snow-Rain Saddles, so I’m postponing the ride until Monday 1/15/24, with a rollout at 10 AM. Since it is MLK Day, naturally, we’ll roll to the MLK Memorial at the Tidal Basin. I’ll update the route as soon as I can.

     

    Please pass the word along that Sunday’s ride is postponed until Monday. Start time is 10AM from Vigilante Hyattsville. Route will be updated.

     

     

    _______________IGNORE THE BELOW. IT IS OLD. I WILL POST NEW DETAILS AS SOON AS I CAN.___________

     

    Hi all,

     

    On Sunday 1/14/24 starting at 9am, I’m leading a ride that rolls from Vigilante in Hyattsville, goes through the city, stops at the Washington Monument for some pics, crosses over Anacostia and up the ART and ends up at Vigilante again.

     

    It’s open to any Freezing Saddlers, not just Team 14, aka:

     

     

    Here’s the route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/45336492

     

    If you’d like to get coffee and hang pre-ride, please be ready to roll at 9 🙂

     

    Feel free to join for all or part of it, but I don’t know exactly what time and where we’ll be if you plan to intercept us mid-ride.

    This is a great idea! Thanks for organizing.  I’m 50-50 (think my Sunday morning mtb ride will likely be cancelled). Jeff (the original bad captain)
