This Sunday, November 22, I will lead a group of Hoofers on a bike ride (~30 miles round trip) to Riley Tavern for their weekly pancake breakfast. We will depart from Park Street Circle at 8:30am.

We will take the SW bike path and the Military Ridge State Trail to Riley for as many pancakes as we can eat. Then we'll head back to Madison. We'll plan to be back at the Union by 1:00pm.

Bring $10 ($6 for pancakes, $4 for a state trail day pass), a bicycle, helmet, and water for the ride. If you need to borrow a helmet or bike from the club, please let me know in advance. New hoofers welcome and encouraged to come!

From: Mike Hutchen

Each and every Sunday, just a short 16 mi. bike ride will land you all you can eat pancakes at Riley's Tavern! We will meet at Park Street Circle at 9:00 a.m., and we will ride out like circular hounds of hell (not really, but you can laugh at the imagery)! We will then eat our fill of pancakes, ride home, and arrive back at Madison around 1:00pm. You will need a bike, helmet, and money. $6 for all-you-can-eat pancakes! Rock on!!!!!

All the best,
