Sunday Ride - Noodling to New Oxford

Dear Friends,

Sunday's weather forecast is absolutely irresistible, and we hope you can come out and join us on a delightful ride.  Here's what's on tap:

SUNDAY, JANUARY 13, 2013

"NOODLING TO NEW OXFORD," starting from Amber Meadows Shopping Center (Roy Rogers, etc.), Frederick, Maryland.  **MEETING TIME 7:45 A.M.**  This is a relatively tame ride on very quiet and pretty Frederick, Carroll, and Adams County roads.  Morning rest stop in Taneytown, lunch at the Pizza Garden in New Oxford PA, and an afternoon rest stop in Detour.  100 miles, with a 61-mile short option.  Estimated elevation gain only 4500 feet.  Here's the link to the detailed RWGPS map:  http://ridewithgps.com/routes/986121


Please download and print out your own cue sheet and GPS files for Sunday's ride directly from the DCCenturyRides blog, http://dccenturyrides.blogspot.com/.  Just click on "Cue Sheets" (on the left side of the page), and you'll find them there!  If you're unable to print the cue sheet yourself, let me know and I'll bring a hard copy to the ride start for you.  I won't be bringing extra copies of cue sheets to the ride start unless you email me directly and advise me that you're unable to print out your own.  Please don't try to use the so-called "cue sheet" that appears on the left side of the RWGPS map!


Here are the directions to the ride start:

AMBER MEADOWS SHOPPING CENTER, Thomas Johnson Drive & Opossumtown Pike, FREDERICK, MARYLAND

From D.C. Beltway (I-495), take I-270 north 31 miles to Frederick.  Continue north on US15 3.7 miles.  Take Exit 16, Motter Ave exit (sign for Frederick Community College).  Turn RIGHT at the traffic light onto Opossumtown Pike.  In a quarter mile cross Thomas Johnson Drive (traffic light), then turn right into the shopping center at the Weis Market entrance.  Park at the north end of the parking lot between the Weis Market and Roy Rogers.


Cheerio,
