May 26, 2002 Memorial Day Weekend  
 
 
June 8, 2002 Knock, Knock, Knockin' on the President's Door. There will be two big climbs between miles 12 and 24. The first climb, up Catoctin Hollow Rd, prepares us for the second and more difficult climb, up Park Central Rd and past Camp David at the top. After the spectacular second downhill we will rest andm regroup at the Thurmont Sheetz at mile 32. The remainder of the ride is on flat to rolling terrain, but tired legs may require more than the usual effort. The routes are the same until just after the rest stop. No go if roads are wet.

 June 23, 2002 Skyline Drive
It is beautiful and scenic in the park. Watch out for bears, seen them before, harmless thou. You can make a U-turn at any time which happened to us once in a rain storm. Be prepared for long, perspiring climbs and thrilling, chilling, downhill runs. The hills are not really that steep, just loooooong. Food only available at Elkwallow. Id carry some trail mix along the way. Entrance fee for bicyclists is $5.
