FLCC> The $6 Weekend Bike Tours -- Find out more Friday evening

[Steven Powell]

Who is organizing a series of spring and summer bike tours, including 
2 weekend tours that will cost only $6 each?  The FLCC Touring Group, 
is doing this plus much more.  Get the details this Friday evening at 
our General Interest/Organizational Meeting.

What:  General Interest/Organizational Meeting for any of the 5 FLCC 
Touring Group overnight tours
When:  Friday May 2, 7:00 pm to 9:30 pm (we're allowing plenty of 
time for the individual bike questions)
Where:  733 Cliff St, Ithaca, NY (Andrejs Ozolins' residence with 
white post marked 733 in front)
Parking:  Just up the hill on Cliff St in the large parking lot at 
the Cayuga Medical Associates, 821 Cliff Street (walk back down to 
Andrejs' house)
Phone:  Andrejs' phone if in need of directions, 607-592-0780
Website:  flcycling.org/touringgroup

We'll be discussing a whole host of items including: the cycling 
routes, group food options, housing/camping arrangements, carpooling, 
recommended bike setup, and any other questions you might have about 
the 5 overnight tours that the FLCC Touring Group is organizing for 
this spring and summer.  As a quick summary for those who haven't 
heard:  We have trips planned for Cape Vincent over the Memorial Day 
weekend, two weekend trips of Finger Lakes touring and camping in 
June and July, a week-long trip from Washington, DC to Pittsburgh via 
the C&O canal trails in July, and an August loop tour around Lake 
Champlain.

We'd like to tailor these tours to our group's interests so try to 
come to this General Interest/Organizational Meeting and give us your 
input.  (Of course you are welcome to make suggestions directly via 
e-mail or the listserv if you can't attend the meeting.  We'll also 
post highlights from the meeting at the club website:  
flcycling.org/touringgroup ).

Consider bringing your bike to the meeting so that we can give you 
specific advice about the suitability of your bike for any of the 
tours.  For example, we can suggest how best to mount a rear rack, 
and the type of packs or panniers that would work out well on your 
bike.  Not all of the tours require a bike with racks and packs -- 
see the website for more details and/or come to the meeting this 
Friday to find out more.
