Anyone interested in doing the slow spokes 20 mile route at Shearon Harris Visitors Center Sunday at 8:30 am? I am a 12-14 mph rider from Slow Spokes. Come on out.

Lynn, Figure me...I was planning on doing the Jimmy V...but this will actually work out better for me. See ya Sunday.

Awesome! See you there! L

[Susan H]

Count me in on Sunday! Any interest to do more miles, say about 35-40? What do you think?

[H from Fla]

I would like to do more, but I will stick to whatever the game plan is.

[LKoonce]

I'll map out a route and we can see what everyone would like to do.

I would love to join also. I vote for the longer route also, but will take whatever comes. Where do we park? In the visitors center?

We park at the visitors center:

Shearon Harris Visitors' Center,
3932 New Hill Holleman Road,
New Hill NC, 27562

I think it is exit 89 off US1 south. Then about 1.75 miles on the right.

I was wondering if you had permission to park out at the Visitors' Center or maybe one of you work out there? I think the larger the group you have the better to have permission. I know Security likes to know, especially if it's a lot of vehicles.

I don't! How do we get permission? I have ridden out there a few times with slowspokes and a few times just as our own group.

I think you can park at Harris Lake Park - on the same road as Shearon Harris visitor's center just a little further down the road.

Lynn, my schedule has just changed and I am afraid that I will be unable to make it. Hope you guys have a great ride!!

I'll be @ the Jimmy V Cycling Celebration/Cary Cycling Celebration. There is a great 25 mile supported ride starting @ 10AM. Lunch is provided and there is a Swap meet (sale of bike stuff between 1-3). Hope to see you there!

Yeah, depending on the route you go it may add a small amount of mileage to the route but not too bad. I like Harris Park as a starting/ending point - they have restrooms which can be useful...

At a cost of $2/mile! :eek:
