The men ate the horses yesterday - see Washington Crosses The Delaware · Stan Freberg
President's Day ride going by the site of Slade's Tavern at My Lady's Manor where George Washington breakfasted June 6, 1773.
 
Note that Washington's birth date—February 22—will never fall on the third Monday in February!  Wait a minute - wasn't George Washington born in Virginia on February 11, 1731.  Just so, but :
Contemporaneous records used the Old Style Julian calendar and the Annunciation Style of enumerating years, recording his birth as February 11, 1731. The British Calendar (New Style) Act 1750 implemented in 1752 altered the official British dating method to the Gregorian calendar with the start of the year on January 1 (it had been March 25). These changes resulted in dates being moved forward 11 days and an advance of one year for those between January 1 and March 25.
So we consider George to be born on February 22, five days after our ride.

Rolling with hills (2700 ft)

Check Calendar/Forums for any weather related changes.  A different ride may be offered depending on weather or whim of ride leader.

Come join the fun!

People were shocked to see the great general in the buff. “Did you ever see Washington naked?” author Nathaniel Hawthorne wrote, tongue in cheek. “It is inconceivable. He had nakedness, but I imagine was born with his clothes on and his hair powdered and made a stately bow on his first appearance in the world.”
