This year's picnic is again being graciously hosted by the LaDrews.
Bob and Judy live at 139 Gable Road, about 3.5 miles north of
Coatesville, PA. Point your browser to http://tinyurl.com/kny7gj
This is a great riding area, both as a destination (84 miles for
A riders from Rose Tree, 62 miles for B riders out of Ridley
Creek State Park, and 50 miles for C riders and out of Chadds Ford or Pocopson) and as a point of departure. For folks who prefer to drive or shorten their riding time, Bob will lead a 30-mile C+ ride after the picnic.
The start time is 11:30 am.
The DVBC picnic is
for members-only but membership
is still just $15 cheap.

We need more rides on the calendar and more ride leaders. To help motivate folks to sign up to lead rides, the board has approved a new ride leader incentive program.
If you've been thinking you would like to lead a ride but are unsure how to, we have two ways to help you get going. One wayis a new Ride Leader Guideline that will be posted soon on the club website that walks you through the simple logistics and helps answer situational questions. Another way is to get mentored from one of our experienced ride leaders who can guide you in all phases.
If you would like assistance, contact me and I will hook you up with a ride mentor.
