Rick Lawrence, head of Rick's Ride Escort Service, sports his finery. Rick Lawrence and Jim McGarry doing a cue sheet consult. Penny Karr, wondering if she really wanted to get up this early.

 

The century riders, escorted by Peter Brooks, Rich Fields, and Dave Johnson, head out to Hablow Country. The Randem Tandem Wrangle stops at the Nashoba Valley winery. Ain't that peachy! Jim Calvin shares a bag of peaches he just picked.

 

Now for the real meal. Lunch at Jeromes, the restaurant at the Nashoba valley winery. From left to right, crab cakes, turkey sandwich on anadama bread, soba, and artfully prepared salad. Also present were Susan Grieb, the Widnalls, and the Calvins.

 

This time we're all here and the food's gone -- Donogriebs, Widnall's, Calvins. Waiting to start the rides. Jim Sullivan, Rick Lawrence, Susan Grieb, Ken Hablow, Rich Fields.
Another ride start, John Goeller's "Hop to Hopedale." Ride escorts waiting for customers: Jim McGarry, Lyn Pohl, Susan Grieb. Here they are. Riders for the Cranberries and Ice Cream ride.

 

Treading the thin yellow line. Riders as far as the eye can see. Bob and Carol Anderson, who came all the way from Rhode Island.

 

The fire hydrant on left is NOT a designated rest stop. Cranberry Crew at Kate's Corner. Jack Donohue blocking an otherwise scenic view on Monument Street.

 

Scenic view of the fields of the organic farm on Monument Street. Jim McGarry, Lyn Pohl, and their tandem. Does this look posed?

 

Parking lot after the ride. The registration desk. This was a Sunday afternoon photo, if taken on Friday, the counter would not be visible behind the swarming masses.
