Advanced Level: Cap2Cap&Back (Overnight): Second Announcement
Details
- Changes to RSVPs should be done prior to Friday September 20th since there are CBG financials involved.
- There is no "rain date" for this event. If we decide the weekend is a wash we will try to make that determination as soon as we can to undo hotel reservations and the like.
- This ride is intended for folks that wouldn't consider doing a back to back 50 mile ride, and offering them instead a safe & supported opportunity to do so.
