Saturday Ride -- DC Randonneurs Woodbine 200K RUSA Brevet (no Sunday ride)

Dear Friends,

This Saturday is the DC Randonneurs Woodbine 200K RUSA Brevet, starting from the Woodbine Park & Ride in Woodbine, Maryland at 7:00 a.m.  DC Randonneurs membership is required. 

We're not scheduling a ride for Sunday because the weather forecast is totally dreary.

Here's the info on Saturday's brevet, courtesy of RBA Bill Beck:

The cue sheet and GPS files for the Woodbine 200K brevet scheduled for this Saturday, December 11, are now posted at http://dcrand.org/blog/2010/12/07/cue-sheet-and-gps-files-for-december-11-200k-rusa-brevet/. Please note the comment about the GPS routing through New Windsor.

This route travels through farmland and small towns in the piedmont of central Maryland and Pennsylvania, including a stretch through the Gettysburg battlefield. It has plenty of rolling hills, but runs parallel to the mountains, so avoids any major climbs. Total climbing of around 7400 feet is moderate for our brevets, but save some energy for those final 15 miles, which has a few short, steep hills.
 
Registration starts at 6AM at the Woodbine Park & Ride. There is a Highs store across from the Park & Ride with restrooms. Hope to see you there.
 
Bill

I second that emotion with regard to the last 15 miles :-)  Looking forward to seeing you on Buffalo Road and/or Watersville.
