Central PA MS 150
I rode in my fifth MS 150 over the July 16 - 17 weekend. We did the century loop on Saturday and the 75-mile loop on Sunday. Both rides departed from Gettysburg College. I rode with Team Giant (the grocery store, not the bicycle maker) which appeared to have maybe 20 or 30 riders.
Both days started cool and overcast, and humid. The sun came out each day at about noon, and with the humidity already in the air, it felt as if someone had turned on the oven.
We drank gallons of water -- the ride was well-organized and rider support was superb. In fact, the stops might have been a little too close together (but we felt we had to stop to stock up on liquid).
We were glad to be finished on both days, and glad to have ridden for a good cause.

Wow, that's wonderful....
I wish more people rode bikes, whether it be for recreational fun, to work, to the store. I ride a lot in Chambersburg, but most of the car drivers are not too friendly. People thought I didn't have a drivers license because I used to ride to work, they didn't figure people rode their bikes to work anymore! go figure
