START: Sparks Elem School -- Ride Terrain: Rolling With Hills, Ride Leader's Pace: 15 mph, Regrouping: None, Rest Stops: Snack, Rain Cancellation: Precipitation >60%,
We'll start from the Sparks Elem parking lot which contains a porta potty. We'll ride 29 miles to a High's on Federal Hill Rd, Route 165, for our stop. There's also a nearby 7-11 and a creamery/deli if those are better choices. The 15-mile return is through typical northern Baltimore County horse country.
Regrouping depends on who shows up and are they feeling kind or competitive. I couldn't find this ride in the cue sheet library so I photocopied my cue sheet from a prior ride.
I checked the forecast for Saturday for Butler. The temperature range was 39 to 61 degrees. The chance of rain was listed at 3%.

START: Hydes Road park -- Ride Terrain: Rolling With Hills, Ride Leader's Pace: 12 mph, Regrouping: Some, Rest Stops: None, Rain Cancellation: Go No Matter What,
It’s daylight savings Sunday! Use that extra hour of daylight for a ride from Hyde’s road park through Loch Raven reservoir. Looks like local roads are back open after construction so by adding the panhandle down to Ironhorse for the turnaround the ride should be around 24 hilly miles. Ride start links above and here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/mKfnufRcC5KkrKCL8?g_st=ipc. No paper cue sheets, restroom at the start.
Thank you Greg for providing the correct link.

Yes, we are really riding to the renovated Olney Ale House this time! The beer garden has been rebuilt as well.
The ride will be a leisurely 12-14 mph pace, having lunch at the Ale House. 20 non-hilly miles through the quiet back roads of Olney and on Bachelor Forest Rustic Road, with parts of the new bike path (eventually through Lake Frank).
Enjoy the fall colors.

START: N Juniata St & Otsego St Havre de Grace MD 21078 -- Ride Terrain: Rolling With Hills, Ride Leader's Pace: 11 mph, Regrouping: Some, Rest Stops: Snack, Rain Cancellation: Sprinkles,
Weather looks promising for a beautiful fall day....cool, dry, low winds, sunny . A Rich Burns creation, this ride continues to be among my favorites for its rural scenery, historic town & magnificent views of the waterfront. We'll ride from the small P&R @801 Otsego & Juniata Streets, across from Nonnie's Pizzeria and return to Nonnie's (optional lunch) at the end of the ride. There will be 2 short rest stops: mile10.6 w/portapotty and mile 17.2 w/no bathrooms. BRING A SNACK. Paper cue sheets will be available. I recommend using a GPS device to get to the start if you are not familier with Havre de Grace.
Directions to start if not using GPS; I-95 North to exit 89 (Rt 155) towards Havre de grace. Turn RIGHT @end of ramp onto Level Rd. Go 2 miles to RIGHT on Ohio (sign: TO US 40)
For bathrooms before the ride go about 0.5 mi to Royal Farms store on LEFT. When leaving RF continue on Ohio crossing US 40. Turn LEFT to Otsego St. Then go about 0.2mi to small P&R on RIGHT.
